What's your opinion on git rebase vs git merge? (lemmy.sdf.org)

I basically only use git merge like Theo from T3 stack. git rebase rewrites your commit history, so I feel there's too much risk to rewriting something you didn't intend to. With merge, every commit is a real state the code was in.

This sounds like a really good work flow. I've only started working professionally with git only few months ago when I switched jobs to gamedev (for some reason, even though I worked for three years as a pentester in cybesecurity company they literally didnt use VCS for anything), so I still don't have proper git workflow of my own, and this sounds way better. Thanks!

Before I had to start making PRs, my whole git experience on personal projects was git add . ; git commit; git push;
