I'm a little on the fence in terms of squashing the commits of others vs.
asking the contributor to do so. There are a lot of situations where spreading
out a big patch over multiple commits makes sense and makes the history more
consumable.
A couple of questions:
* How does this preserve authorship in a pull request that has commits from
multiple authors?
* How would this work with our current branch model? Specifically, applying
a pull request to multiple branches.
