Indeed it does.

Did the merge with verbosity set to 5. It says the commit I'm merging
in is virtual (probably as it is a merge commit in itself?).

Why would commit be left behind after merge? What kind of history
triggers this scenario?
Just trying to understand reasoning as its counter-intuitive to what I
know now. This may affect our workflow (ie., change it so we avoid it
happening).
