As I understand it, the plan is to create a branch starting from somewhere in
the 0.10 series that contains all the history of the android plugin, without
any touches in other files (using git filter-branch to filter what the commits
contain) and then merge this in master (no squashing, just git merge). This
avoids rebasing the entire history on top of master, which I think makes sense
for this case, because otherwise master would contain non-compilable commits.

No, the example from this repository is good, but the *same* example also
exists in the ahc-history-preserved branch (together with one more very similar
example) and is broken there.
