[snipped a lot of text] It seems to me the general gist of what you are saying is that if everyone follows the steps you describe, rewriting history should not be a problem (please correct me if I'm wrong). I'm not challenging that, I'm saying that this is not particularly the way people and projects I know of work, me included at a certain point in time. Until everyone and every tool using the git repository is reached and adjusted to your needs I don't see how you can consider it a viable option, unless your point of view is that disrupting the work of others than don't do as you think should be done is acceptable.
There is no such as thing like "misbehaviour". The topic of this thread is to discuss about policies of boost wrt. to operations /permitted/ by git rewriting the history.
That's of course subjective, the operation exists and the tools allow you to use it.
This is the exact opposite of subjective: this is just factual.
My opinion on whether doing something constitutes misbehavior is entirely subjective.
My opinion is that using it on a public branch is misbehaving.
There we are: thanks for underlining the following two important words this time: /"My opinion"/.
