I am not sure. I just wanted to make sure the new feature got into master as well as 3_X. I have been following the branch commits and as long as the record of these granular commits can be traced, I am fine with the single commit to master. If you take the single commit approach to master, will the steps be traceable from master or will we have to go back to 3_X to trace things? If the latter, it would be good to add something to the big commit message to direct later archaeological investigations back to the 3_X branch. What is the standard git way of dealing with kind of thing?
