Happens on merge, sure, but the end result is that you kinda lose the individual commits. You can still find them in the PR, but you won't see them in the git history, so git blame will just point you to the one big squashed commit.

If you, however, open a chain of 8 PRs, and merge them in the right order, the individual commits will be persisted in the git history. Potentially worth it if you like to have a "story" of several commits...
