: Gatch does not break Git history, thus, it is possible to see downstream commits that existed before every upstream merge. It is useful to {{Code|git --hard reset}} sometimes, but might be annoying to see all of them in {{Code|git log}} output. To suppress showing these commits, use {{Code|git log --first-parent}} command. | : Gatch does not break Git history, thus, it is possible to see downstream commits that existed before every upstream merge.
