Alas, I think you may have misread what I wrote — I had previously
uploaded systemd around June 2018 (based on the very same Debian
packaging you mention), including pushing to our Git repositories
as usual/expected and not doing anything that would prevent merging…
if only to keep the diff minimal and sanity maximal.

However, when I went to do another update in the last few days I
noticed that the history had been entirely scrubbed (see grandfather
mail in this thread.) It is this latter rewriting that made me
curious.

Mm, bhence my "I just went to refresh…" that prompted me to notice
in the first place, the actual upload is not really relevant.


Best wishes,
