Yes, I learn't that the hard way :)

Yes because, to some extent at least, maintainers have a certain
amount of latitude in how they manage their own repository. The whole
rebase against master theory came about, I think, to avoid the
maintainer repositories being littered with merge commits (which I
assume adds more merge commits to mainline). I personally don't have
an issue with merge commits - YMMV

Regards,

Graeme
