That would invalidate the simple rule that "git pull" is equivalent to
"git fetch" + "git rebase".
git rebase depends on both branches it operates on, not just one. The
same goes for "git merge", I assume it is just a coincidence that git
merge does have this characteristic you now expect both to have.
