Hi,
I often add printf statements during debugging, which obviously should not end up in the final submission. My usual approach is to commit these immediately, into commits with a message of "DISCARD", so that when I do a final rebase pass, I can remove the debug code easily.
Would it make sense to add a mechanism that autosquash understands directly, and that could be checked for by a push hook or CI rule?
