The commands ‘git rebase’ and ‘git merge’ are both meant to combine changes from one branch into another, but they do so in different ways.
When we rebase a feature branch onto the master branch, the feature branch’s base is moved to the master branch’s endpoint.
We take the contents of the feature branch and combine them with the master branch using merge. As a result, only the master branch is modified, while the feature branch’s history is unchanged. A new commit is added to your history when you merge.
Rebasing will result in inconsistencies in the repository. Rebasing makes a lot of sense for people. Now, we should utilize merge to observe the history in its entirety, just as it occurred. Rebase rewrites history, whereas merge retains it.
