you can try increasing history size:

in .bashrc, or .profile, or equiv,
export HISTSIZE=500000
export HISTFILESIZE=10000000

note that if you use screen or tmux you'll want to compensate accordingly.


regarding git confusion:
i've also found visual git tools helpful tracking down merge and history issues.

e.g. kdiff3, gitk or whatnot.  in a tree view, you can see an odd merge or tag
like you discuss above.

best regards,
