      What's interesting to me about the rebase thing is it's usually a few engineers pushing everybody else to do it.

      I use rebase as described in this article a lot. To clean up "wip" commits before merging into the master branch.

      I end up pushing a lot of garbage to branches basically as a backup system. Nobody needs to see that in a year.

      I also might be crazy, but I find the rebase workflow can be pretty nice for dealing with interim changes to master.

      FWIW, I think that a large open source project and a large team building a product are different contexts.

      We frequently talk about many varied activities as if they are similar enough to warrant the same processes.

      IMO depends on what you want out of your commit history. Easily-followed history of features? Twists/turns/false starts? Both can be useful.

      I think the latter is good (and what I want) but I don't need to see commits with debuggers I pushed at EOD before running home.

          Yeah. A commit history is documentation, worth putting some thoughtful design into like any other documentation. :)

          I've always seen it differently. Commit history is history. It's what actually happened. We lie to ourselves when we change it.

          me, too. but i will think about expressing that in terms of the "why" i did it. that idea has merit.

          A merge commit message is an excellent place for expressing a "why" at a point in time when branches merge.

          Great idea! I've been relying on default merge message. Missed opportunity to explain why the merge was made instead.

          People gloss over merge commits like they are useless. I understand why. But it's a missed opportunity.

          I think a big part of the trouble is people *think* of git history as a linear log instead of a graph. We are guided by our mental models.

          It sounds like you think of commit history more as a data store from which insights could be extracted, rather than a constructed narrative?
