(simplified, take with grain of salt:)
"git pull" is short for "git fetch && git merge <tracking branch>"
"git pull --rebase" is short for "git fetch && git rebase <tracking branch>"
"git svn rebase" is short for "git svn fetch && git rebase <svn
tracking branch>"
"git svn dcommit" is short for "while (changes) { svn ci && git svn rebase }"
It's all just shortcuts for the same operations underneath. Does that help?
