在 github 的“合并拉取请求”操作之后，所有来自功能分支的提交和一个新的合并提交出现在开发分支上

Question

Develop branch looks like

Develop
  |- Commit 1

Create feature branch off develop git checkout -b feature origin/develop

Feature 
  |- Commit 1
  |- Commit 2  (New commit)
  |- Commit 3  (New Commit)

After that created a PR with two commits. Use a GitHub Merge pull request button to merge After merging the commit history of Develop looks like

Develop
  |- Commit 1
  |- Commit 2
  |- Commit 3
  |- Merged pull request #1 from user/branch/name
