Use rev-list --simplify-merges everywhere. This changes the behaviour of --subdirectory-filter in cases such as O -- A -\ \ \ \- B -- M where A and B bring the same changes to the subdirectory: It now keeps both sides of the merge. Previously, the history would have been simplified to 'O -- A'. Merges of unrelated side histories that never touch the subdirectory are still removed.
