Yes! Thankyou for that. I knew about some of the flags discussed on this topic but not --topo-order. For my new project I've already decided some months ago to use merges with --no-ff when merging in work by other people, along with a kernel style "everyone gets their own repo" model. A lot of the discussion around Git workflow is basically noise created by the weak and hardly ever improved GitHub UI. True. They prefer building AI to building better log views on their core product. But, even much more advanced Git clients like the one in IntelliJ don't properly expose all the different ways of looking at git logs, and git has so many flags and options that it's nearly impossible to know them all. Even if one day you spend the time to read the user guide from cover to cover, newer versions will add new features and you won't see them. If the GUIs were better, I suspect all these discussions would quickly dry up.
