- GIT encourages rebasing, which leads to rebasing of your public and other people's
- code. This is bad.
- Mercurial, which hashes a changeset's place in history as well as it's
- content, discourages rebasing. Rebasing happens in private with mq patch queues.
- Public trees are merged. This is good.
- Either style is possible with both tools. The difference is the default emphasis.
- Defaults matter.
