What specific property of git mandates a website to not clean up those dangling commits? | ||||||||

Git has no de jure hierarchy of repositories. We de facto treat the GH repo as the primary one (and call it "origin"), but mechanically it's a peer repo. Even though it lets other repos push it around a bit and obeys commands like "change the branch to point to another commit", there are no commands to force it to delete the data. | ||||||||
