That's what I thought but it's not quite "no one". There are some who'd love to have all git commit history, and if it was possible, the entire editor text buffer histories and keystroke logs of other programmers' work. This was my reply to it:

The post I replied to qualified it with "this may be a minority position" but his comment happens to be the topmost comment so lots of HN voters agreed with him.
Based on the repetition of this "git rebase" topic, I can only guess that roughly half of git users want to see all git commits with "oops, stupid typo", and the other half don't want to be inundated with meaningless noise. I really have no idea though.
