question about fold

[Neal Becker]

This morning I copied some of my updates from machine 1 to machine 2.  
Everything was built fine on m1, so I pulled the update to m2.  But it 
didn't build on m2.  I had forgotten to add/ci some files.  So I fixed that 
on m1 and pulled to m2.

So this would seem like a perfect use for fold.  Now I have 2 different 
commits, the first says:

added feature foo

and 2nd says:

more foo

or something to that effect.

But I can't use fold, because fold refused to operate on 'public' repos.

So finally, here is my question.  Is this restriction necessary, or could it 
be eventually removed?  Just wondering.
