I basically only use git merge like Theo from T3 stack. git rebase rewrites your commit history, so I feel there’s too much risk to rewriting something you didn’t intend to. With merge, every commit is a real state the code was in.

What does git pull rebase do? If I understand it correctly, it pulls in the remote changes but rebases your changes to be on top of them, instead of merging the remote and local branch? What is the intended usage of it, it sounds like a lot better way how to pull, why not to use it as default pull?
Because rebasing changes the history, which would mess with other people’s copies of the same branch, wherefore it shouldn’t be default.
