Can't say much about rebase -- Rebase is evil. Ok, maybe not evil, maybe it's necessary given the requirements git needs to support (huge Linux repos). But history should never be forgotten, and that's what rebase does. I've been working with Fossil and prefer it.

No flames, not trying to convert anyone -- here's a comparison of the two:

And an article from yesterday:

Again, not trying to convert, just showing another option.
