Wait, so we can do this without a force push?
I've wanted to do this for a while but I'd always assumed that the
final step in the process would be "cross fingers with one hand, hit
enter with the other, and pray I don't thereby destroy all our Github
archives".
IMHO :+1: and don't worry about the ludicrously giant merge commit; a
few tens of megabytes will be worth it to have "git blame" working
properly. Too many times I've glanced at some ancient code and
wondered whether it was my fault; finally I'll be able to *know* it
was my fault!
