What I do locally on my branch is my own business.

Honestly, when doing a merge/pull request into the parent branch, that's when you squash. You don't need the entire history of a development branch in main.

Lol ok, but don't expect git to read your mind. Like I said earlier, if people take a day or two to understand the tool, they can adjust their personal workflows to work better within the confines of git.

I agree.

Unfortunately, from experience, nobody seems to have time for that. They just learn git pull, push, add, commit and merge and that's about it.

Sometimes they'll use checkout and end up in detached head and have a panic attack. That's when I come in. lol
