@JohannesDaniel nope. If you did a rebase, those new commits would be
behind your commits, not merged ahead of them. What a rebase does is it sets
aside your commits, brings the base pointer for the branch up to the current
pointer for the source branch (master in this case) and replays your commits on
top of that.---
