Marc-Aurèle and Rafael, I mean both. I know we used to require the first, to 
create the release notes in a concise way and we used to ban the other because 
it leads to unnavigable revision trees. But now that squash and merge is a 
functionality of github one might argue that it doesn’t matter anymore. 
Personally, I am against squashing persé, in any case. I am not the law (other 
than during some triathlons) so we jointly might decide differently.

    The same as Rafael described. If it is the second case I would prefer 
rebasing the target branch and push force instead of including merge commits in 
a PR

    Just a note Daan.  If a PR is merged with the `git pr ####` tool in our
    utilities folder, it will automatically include the merge commit.  Figured
    I should mention that...
