It seems this is currently in inconsistent state. Despite the new name of the option, it still doesn't rebase merges. It rather recreates them from scratch, and Johannes is hopefully still working on implementation of proper rebasing.

In addition, for what it's worth, I'm cooking a review of the problems of the suggested UI. I believe the UI of this new feature is seriously mis- and/or under- developed and is not suitable as is for the core Git.
