Hello all,
Is it intentional we have switched to 'Merge' commits for pull requests?
I'm exploring them as a way to speed up our merge process and provide better auditing.
No decision yet.
e.g.

Jason it is going to look like you have authored everything and in the
future using annotate or browsing the history it is going to be more
complex to identify why previous lines of code were written ;-)
That's not true. A merge commit links to the original author history. Github just
displays the delta to be friendly. Git annotate also will show the original author sha1
and not the merge sha1.
