The merge commit always refers back to the PR id, so even if it was squashed you can still look up the play-by-play by looking up the PR. I wonder if this could be represented in git by tagging the squashed branch with the PR id with a description that has the merge commit id, and the merge commit description that references the tag. It would be nice if something like this could be standardized so it works across systems.
