Personally, I think merges are a Very Good idea because they bake into
the tree information that is currently contained only in the pushlog.
This improves bisect from my perspective, although I'll grant it might
not improve other tools. Merges also preserve the differences between
the code I wrote and the code that eventually got merged in after
conflicts were resolved, perhaps by the sheriff.
But perhaps we should table this discussion (and some of the other
ones in this thread) until after we decide that this is a good idea.
