Subject: [PATCH 0/1] cover-letter: flatten
Date: Sat, 13 May 2023 17:51:53 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230513165154.772-1-philipoakley@iee.email> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <xmqq5ybug8s8.fsf@gitster.g>

The discussion on `--rebase-merges` documentation [1] noted the
variety of terminologies that could be used when looking at commit
history.

This change consolidates the current colloquial use of 'flatten' as
a synonym for the linearizing of commit sequences, and notes some
of the potential misunderstandings.
