Whats so wrong with a merge? Git is made for it. Sometimes things are nonlinear. I prefer to roll-forward anyway instead of rollback.

It's not bisectable. http://darwinweb.net/articles/the-case-for-git-rebase

It makes figuring out what happened much harder. When 3 people in a row make some small change to a comment or log output, I'd like to just see those 3 rather than follow both sides of a merge and walk the tree endlessly only to realize I've wasted my time on a bunch of commits that couldn't possibly be causing the production bug.
