In GitHub project settings you can select the Merge Button options:
* Allow merge commits - Add all commits from the head branch to the
base branch with a merge commit.
* Allow squash merging - Combine all commits from the head branch into
a single commit in the base branch.
* Allow rebase merging - Add all commits from the head branch onto the
base branch individually.
If you want to avoid the merge commits on GitHub you can untick the
"Allow merge commits".
