What if there were an official place to keep dirty histories?
git actually has a place for these, although at a price: when you squash commits or otherwise modify history, the originals are retained in the reflog. By default the reflog gets cleaned periodically, and letting it grow without bound has a performance impact, but in theory it could be used to keep this information. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
