Sure, but you are still supposed to clean things up to make the life of the reviewer easier.

There's an inherent tension between honest history and a polished 'lie' to make the reviewer's life easier.

The "honest" historical record of when I decided to use "git commit" while working on something is 100% useless for anyone but me (for me it's 90% useless).

git tracks revisions, not history of file changes.
