Git pull rebase-When should I use git pull --rebase?

Question

I know of some people who use git pull --rebase by default and others who insist never to use it. I believe I understand the difference between merging and rebasing, but I'm trying to put this in the context of git pull. Is it just about not wanting to see lots of merge commit messages, or are there other issues?

Answer 1

You can use 

git pull --rebase

When your changes don’t deserve a separate branch.

 In Git, you're encouraged to branch and merge. Your local branch and remote branch are, actually, different branches, and git pull is about merging them.
