Re: [PATCH] Re: rebase -i: auto-squash commits

Okay, I'll add another point that should convince you that the commit 
message is not the good place to trigger that behavior:

Interactive rebasing is about having made a quite messy patch series, 
maybe having a few fixup commits, and then deciding how to clean it up.

The decision how to clean it up is very much a rebase-time decision, not a 
commit-time decision.

I agree.

Magic commit messages are not good for this kind of thing.
