Hi Mark,

>>Btw, what's your opinion on "merging in master multiple times", or
"rebasing" (if there's just one dev in the branch)? (I prefer avoiding
polluting the git log with the "merging master..." )

I didn't understand well, do you mean commit description with "merging
master..." title without many details? If so, I also believe this delay the
flow, because  it takes more time to reviewers organize the PRs.
