After rebasing and reset I am on unexpected commit

Hi.

I am on my current branch:

$ git log --graph --decorate --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit
* 5b85d64 (HEAD -> SCTT_for_other_tables) Implement script to test CORS
* f45a919 Create SCTT for Contractor
* 702fcdd (xtucha/SCTT_for_other_tables) Create SCTT for PartnershipAgreement
* 7e4cac9 Create SCTT for Language
* a0607d1 Fixed broken tests for 'Person'
* 1d0a1b2 Create SCTT for DocumentFile
* 92837c1 Fix SQL quoting problem

Now I want to pull new changes and rebase my work on top of it:

$ git pull -v -r amazon SCTT_for_other_tables
From amazon:/v1/repos/tucha
 * branch            SCTT_for_other_tables -> FETCH_HEAD
 = [up to date]      SCTT_for_other_tables -> amazon/SCTT_for_other_tables
Created autostash: 97ce867
HEAD is now at 5b85d64 Implement script to test CORS

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:

  git checkout -b <new-branch-name>

HEAD is now at a0d92dc Merge branch 'SCTT_for_other_tables' of amazon:/v1/repos/tucha into SCTT_for_other_tables

Successfully rebased and updated refs/heads/SCTT_for_other_tables.
Applying autostash resulted in conflicts.
Your changes are safe in the stash.
You can run "git stash pop" or "git stash drop" at any time.

As you can see the rebase finished successfully except applying autostash

$ git log --graph --decorate --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit
*   a0d92dc (HEAD -> SCTT_for_other_tables, amazon/SCTT_for_other_tables) Merge branch 'SCTT_for_oth
|\

* f45a919 Create SCTT for Contractor

* a0607d1 Fixed broken tests for 'Person'
* 1d0a1b2 Create SCTT for DocumentFile
* 92837c1 Fix SQL quoting problem

1. Why I got merge? I did not ask that. Thus I want to rewind back

$ git reset --hard HEAD^ HEAD is now at 0c1ac6c Create SCTT for ContractorTypeI18n

2. Why I am returned to 0c1ac6c Create SCTT for ContractorTypeI18n
instead of: 5b85d64 Implement script to test CORS ?

I expect to be in the state when I start my rebasing

$ git log --graph --decorate --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit
* 0c1ac6c (HEAD -> SCTT_for_other_tables) Create SCTT for ContractorTypeI18n
* f45a919 Create SCTT for Contractor
* 702fcdd (xtucha/SCTT_for_other_tables) Create SCTT for PartnershipAgreement
* 7e4cac9 Create SCTT for Language
* a0607d1 Fixed broken tests for 'Person'
* 1d0a1b2 Create SCTT for DocumentFile
* 92837c1 Fix SQL quoting problem

Now 5b85d64 Implement script to test CORS is not any branch and with less attention will be lost

What did I do wrong? is this behavior expected?
