You're both right. One of the contributors who is working with me on
Aquamacs and I have been discussing this last night. Even though
we're using Git, it should still be relevant.
To avoid uninformative merge commits on the trunk (master), I
suggested to use "git rebase" in lieu of "git merge" whenever a
private (unpublished) branch is merged into the trunk. Otherwise, the
merge commit comment refers to branches that are not visible as named
branches or tags to others, even though their content and history is
(and I guess it'll be the same in bzr). Rebasing in that case is
easy, and cleaner. (It's got nothing to do with rebase "surgery" on
published branches, i.e., undoing history). The non-linear commit
history that you're discussing is another reason that I wasn't even
thinking about.

Would this be useful?
If the commits on the private branch aren't clean, then rebasing
clearly won't help. Doing a merge with a reasonable commit message
(listing all changes, but not any possible "back and forth",
"trial&error" changes, sounds much better.
Does bzr generally make the merged history available? Or would the
branch need to be pushed?
(Git pushes all reachable revisions, I think, which is why I'm
assuming bzr does the same, but maybe I'm wrong.)
