           Summary: Git history is broken; prevents github upload
           Product: Mesa
           Version: git
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Other
          Assignee: mesa-dev at lists.freedesktop.org

As some already posted in
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/mesa-dev/2016-February/106268.html the
project's git history is broken. While this might look like a minor cosmetical
problem it has severe impact on people who want to clone the repo to github.
Those commits prevent the upload:
