I think the discussion so far was:

 - Peff suggested to keep the history with a true merge;

 - I said the history before the final commit in Avery's tree did not look
   so useful for future archaeology; and then

 - Avery corrected me that there are contributions by other people and the
   credits will be lost if we discarded the history;

and everybody (including me) now favors to have the history.

So the answer to your question is yes, but I do not think we heard opinion
from anybody regarding the question by Avery yet.  I personally do not see
how it would help us if the old history is rewritten at this point.
