The option exists and the rebase behaviour tricked me into thinking
there was a bug with git. This will tell people how they can tweak the
default behavior.

So this still does not explain what rebase behaviour tricked you
into thinking so.  That leaves the readers of "git log" frustrated,
much more than a log message based only on a simple statement of
fact, e.g.

     "git config --help" describes rebase.forkpoint as a way to give
     the default value for --[no-]forkpoint option, but "git rebase
     --help" does not mention it.

     Help people who visits the documentation of "rebase" to find the
     variable.

or something like that.

I made a booboo. I did not run format-patch with the updated commit message and commit. I saw it too late. You should have a new one by the time you read this :)

Cheers,
Wesley
