Add guidance about avoiding merge commits #95

Closed binaryberry closed 8 years ago

While reviewing another PR, I wanted to point someone to the rule I've been taught about avoiding merge commits, as they add noise to the history. I realised it was an unwritten rule, so I'm suggesting to add it here.

👍 Thanks for adding this, it's always good to make things explicit.
