As reviewers, we shouldn't have to care about it; and feel free to use Squash and Merge if it seems better, or even ask contributors to reorganize their commits before merging if it seems necessary. What's important is that what we merge is in good quality of code and also of history, so we keep the history sane. But this is not really a contributor's duty to achieve that, more a reviewer's one. Of course, we should avoid --force on the "upstream" eclipse repo.
