Strange Git history

The git history of this repository is rather strange, having basically two roots. Perhaps it would be best to rebase the changes for moving from NArray to NMatrix onto david-macmahon/rb-gsl's master branch, or alternatively, create a branch off some older commit in that repository.

I have some experience rewriting git history, would you be interested in such a change?

Also, ideally, all rb-gsl repos on GitHub would be forks of @david-macmahon's repo.

Yes, if you'd like to rewrite the history, feel free.

Hi @minad, I'm not sure how that commit fixes this issue?

minad commented

This is not fixed, but I don't consider the git history important. From now on it will be consistent.

If you are interested in the history, then go to:

But as @MohawkJohn said, if you want to rewrite current master based on @david-macmahon's repository, I would gladly accept such a pull request.
