Haha same. But that's why you do it in another branch, and then squash-merge.

I like squash merge on small changes, but when larger code changes are there it becomes a huge commit which is difficult to review if you ever have to go back.

Right... for sure... but then if you don't want to squash, then it doesn't matter you can't squash a merge commit.
