Hello, git version 1.5.2.3 over here, I've googled and searched in the ML archives but did not find this: when I git-svn rebase, my commits in Git (that are temporarily removed and then re-applied) get their commit message flattened on a single line (needless to say this is utterly annoying :D).

Is this a bug or something?
Thanks.
