I recently noticed that the common.git/android-4.9 branch has started a new
(as of the v4.9.13 merge) way of doing merges from linux stable.

I must say that it hurts my eyes to look at that history as compared with
nice clean merges of tagged dot releases from linux stable.  (e.g. v4.9.13
looks much nicer to me than what has happened after the v4.9.13 merge.)

What is the benefit of making the tree hard to comprehend?

Sure, merge conflicts are better isolated to specific changes this way but,
damn its ugly.

Maybe I just need to get used to it. :(
