One interesting note is that Phabricator has moved away from using only rebasing by default for landing git branches. See this commit ( https://secure.phabricator.com/D4080 ) for the full story, but now Phabricator lets your dev team use `git merge` while developing feature branches. When you run `arc land`, your master is merged in to your feature branch (forcing you to resolve all conflicts) and then your feature branch is squash-merged in to master. If your developers like to collaborate on the same branch (pushing and pulling from the same remote,) not having to worry about rebasing is nice. At the end, phabricator turns all of your intermediary steps into one commit anyway so who cares what's going on before then?
