Recently, GitHub made it so that force pushes are displayed in the pull request change history. I like to rebase my branches often (every couple hundred commits) to avoid compatibility issues, so now all of my pull requests look like this:
This is just clutter, is there any way that I can hide this? If not, where can I submit a feature request to GitHub.com itself to get these force push notifications to optionally go away?

While you can send pull requests from any branch or commit, with a topic branch you can push follow-up commits if you need to update your proposed changes. Be very careful when force pushing commits to a pull request. Force pushing changes the repository history and can corrupt your pull request.
Use Protected Branches By default, GitHub will block force pushes on all protected branches, so you will just need to decide which branches should be protected. You can read GitHub's documentation to learn how to create a branch protection rule.
On GitHub.com, navigate to the main page of the repository. Under your repository name, click Settings. Under "Pushes", select Limit how many branches and tags can be updated in a single push. Enter the number of branches and tags you want to limit in a single push.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem possible to hide them, all my pull requests are now a mess of force pushes too.
