Squashing commits on Github PR merge
This might be interesting to all. It is now possible to select which committer/contributor is actually doing the commit when squash merging a PR on GitHub:

This helps to better refer to our contributor. So we can make sure the contributor gets all credit, although we also added some commit to cleanup a PR before merging. You can select one of the contributors of the PR to appear in the merge.
