--- Comment #6 from Kocsen Chung <kocsen_chung at apple.com> ---
Upon second thought, it's important to realize that --rebase is a destructive action as it rewrites history. Although we can infer that this is what most people want we do not have the data.
This means we should probably start a discussion amongst webkit-dev to see if this would impact other workflows that we are unaware of. Only then can we be confident to even change this.

Keeping in mind that the current workflow allows those who would want to opt-in to `--rebase` workflow to set it in their git configuration as so with: `git config pull.rebase true`.
