I personally don't like to squash branches, but I included it explicitly 
because I was told they (can't remember who) preferred a linear history.

You can get perfectly safe 'git bisect' without squashing a branch. All you 
have to do is rebase that branch just before you merge it. History is still 
linear.

eg:
 --A--------------------------C---D (head)
    \-o--o--o--o--o--o--o--o-/
