If this means that from one release to the next is only one commit, I personally don't like it. Usually history (with good commit messages) helps a lot with figuring out why what happened and where bugs were introduced. Not only for my own packages, but especially if I look at packages done by others, be it to fix some bug via NMU or because of take over. Basically, if you are only doing one commit, there is hardly any use for the repository, as I could get the same by downloading the packages from snapshot.d.o. Paul
