Now compare the output of "git-log file1", "git-log --full-history file1"

Ah, I see.

So if I understand you, you wanted to see something like:


A--B
 \  \
  C--D

where

 A = initial commit
 B = duplicate change 1
 C = duplicate change 2
 D = merge branch 'test2' into HEAD

where the simplification isn't as aggressive (you still see the
duplicate commits and the merge), but we can get rid of the later merge
between A and D because A is already an ancestor of D.

So do you have a proposed set of simplification rules that will produce
that output?
