We also tell people to submit crap into tree all the time - it's called staging!
Which is totally unrelated to this flameware. Also if crap goes into staging it doesn't go with years of useless version history.
We also merge full history from time to time like in the case of btrfs.
We do it something, but only for projects that actually follow the Linux commit guidelines.
Usually even "shitty git trees" have value in the history for people who're interested why the code is the way it is. But as people who actually looked at the patches, it doesn't apply here.
Thomas posted how the android tree commits looks. How about getting a clue before posting more useless noise in this thread?
