Instead, people should commit to a private branch they can rewrite (git push -f after amending a commit, for instance) and then a build system can merge that into master when it passes ChangeLog checks (and possibly a basic build check, and possibly maintainer approval). This is, of course, the PR system you find on Github and such sites. It works for thousands of projects. I see no reason why Emacs is special. Ted
