Perhaps like: I'd also note that there are some workflows that assume that --rebase is *never* a good thing, even for contributors. We can decide whether we want to bias the git man page in favor of one workflow as opposed to another, for the sake of new git users, but I don't think it's accurate to say (or even imply) that there are only two workflows: contributor/rebasing and maintainer/merging. - Ted
