Maybe I'm missing something, but I've never understood the point of cleaning up commit history. The only time I ever look at commit history past a few days is if I want to know when something broke (in which case I WANT every part of the history, even the messy bits), or if I'm trying to refresh my memory of what I've done for the year (for performance reviews or whatever) in which case I guess it's marginally useful, but it's pretty easy to skim over "fix build" and such.
