I like this a lot! Maybe way to add some metadata for a "commit collection" in git that is collapsed into a pseudo-commit by default (for browsing, bisect, blame, etc) but with the option to drill down/expand into sub-commits.

git already does this. The message for the merge commit contains the overview of what's happening in the commits in the merge, and use `git log --first-parent` to only include the merge commit when one is encountered.
That said, I still prefer squash/merge myself.
