OK. Query.

Rebase or merge into current?

I personally never rebase. It always seems to have some problem. I'm surely there's a place and time for rebasing but I've never seen it in action I guess.

I've always merged. Rebase simplifies the history graph, but realistically I can't think of a time where that has been important to me, or any of the teams I've worked with.

Maybe on some projects with a huge number of concurrent branches it becomes more important, probably less so for smaller teams.
