Since the poll module was pulled from core, its commit history is deeply intertwined with whatever commits touched it. When this was extracted, if we didnt do the proper git-filter-branch stuff, theres not a lot we can do about it now, without breaking anybody elses clones. We may have to live with incorrect commit stats as breaking remotes would have farther reaching consequences.
