I don't care much for git history
Many developers like to investigate the Git history.
I almost never do this.
If you need to inspect the Git history graph often, then that is usually a smell: something is off in the way the work gets sliced.
If you are in a hurry, go slowly.
Avoid long-living branches. Release early, release often. Then the Git history usually does not matter much, because each step stays small and easy to understand.
