The reason I do not think "pull -r" gives much value to the users to trigger "pull --rebase" is because the use of "pull --rebase" is very project specific. If you are working on a project that forbids merges, you would _always_ want to run "pull --rebase", which means you would likely have it configured and would not be typing from the command line. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
