Comment (by cheuberg):

 IMHO, rebasing destroys history and requires much more work, e.g., you
 ''have'' to merge the rebased ticket into all depending tickets, while a
 merge might just work without additional intervention.

 Luckily, I never merged #18546 into #17220 and its dependencies; otherwise
 I'd have to remerge it again (although nothing relevant changed) and would
 have troubles in my private "develop" branch where I collect all tickets I
 authored in order to detect conflicts between apparently unrelated tickets
 early on.

 Thus for me, rebasing something where somebody else might have based
 something (e.g., something pushed to a trac ticket) is something to avoid
 if at all possible.
