Not really. There may be oddball commands whose parameter order have been established differently long before "git log" came, but almost all of them now use the same convention used by the "git log" family, which is flags/options then revs (and then paths if the operation makes sense with paths). And rebase is not one of the oddball ones. Your "rebase" example is a rev then a flag/option, which is not how any other git command take its command line parameters. > Or at least we should print some sort of warning/error? With that I agree with.
