As long as you stay as a "pull-only" person, and will never ask the upstream to pull back from you, what first parent log would show would make perfectly good sense. However, once a pull from you by the upstream happens, the resulting history would get the summary in the merge you did, which is totally unwanted --- the upstream already had those summarized commits long time ago in its history. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
