Different projects use Git in different ways (merging vs rebasing etc). Wireshark's process is semi-documented at http://wiki.wireshark.org/Development/SubmittingPatches. If you have specific questions feel free to ask.

Hi folks,

I am working with some people who have made a mess of their git
repository in that it has some ugly merging stuff and if you run gitk
is is just a bunch of spaghetti, unlike, say, the Wireshark and Samba
repositories (at least on the master branch) which are clean straight
lines.

Now, much of that seems to be a result of rebasing when new stuff is
committed but I wondered if people know of a git best practices guide?
