Merge commits suck.

My biggest issue with GitHub is that it always squashes and merges.

You are aware you're talking about two different pieces of software?

[–] dukk@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I am. However GitHub, being the biggest Git hosting provider and all that, makes you use merge commits. FF-merges must be done manually from the command line. While this definitely isn’t a problem for me, many people out there just don’t care and merge without a second thought (which, as I said in my comment, results in having to create a new branch and cherry picking the commits onto there).
