but if you were pulling onto a public branch, you would NEVER use
--rebase. this case won't normally happen with nmh development,
since there's only one public repo, and we all push to it.
As I understand it, when you say a "public" branch, you're referring to
a repo which is cloned by other people. In other words, I should never
do a "git pull --rebase" on the git repo that savannah is hosting (which
I can't, because I don't have direct access to it). Also, if I were
sharing my local repo with anyone else, a rebase could mess them up.
But in our normal usage a --rebase is fine when pulling.
