Both strategies have their pros and cons I think.

Without merge up:
con: You have to create multiple pull requests to fix one issue --> more work for both developer and reviewer and a bigger mess of PR's
pro: No merge conflicts resp. the developer can solve those himself

With merge up:
pro: Only one merge request per issue, bringing them all with one merge into the upper branch con: The person who does the merge may not know how to resolve the merge conflicts

As the dev that must approve the request, you can send a comment:

This looks like it needs to go in master too, "can you make another pull that 
cherrypicks or commits this to master"


Or if you are so inclined you could take this on for your self.


So rather then you as the dev, having to figure out the merge conflicts of all 
the conflicted code, the committer, who knows the code figures out the 
conflicts only on his code.

But it really doesn't make sense.
That is my point.

So, we get a pull-request for a bug fix in 2.8.

Who now decides whether it needs to be cherry-picked into 2.9 and 2.10? And
who does that?
