There is a such thing as "quality data" and "log data", and neither
are Orwellian (I don't find such accusation a very productive
argument).
Please be cognizant of the impacts of junk commits. Trying to turn
the trunk ancestry into a tape-recorder of our entire dev history is a
huge mistake. My backend db can handle it fine, it's everywhere else
that it taxes people (their disk, RAM, CPU, and network).
Best,
Chris
