This diagram seems wrong to me. Isn't the second image a squash merge? Also why would rebasing a feature branch change main?
Yeah, the image (not mine, but the best I found quickly) kinda shows a rebase+merge as the third image. As the other commenter mentioned, the new commit in the second image is the merge commit that would include any conflict resolutions.
the image does not update the feature branch. It merges the featurebranch into main with a regular old merge-commit on the main branch.
The only difference between a *rebase-merge and a rebase is whether main is reset to it or not. If you kept the main branch label on D and added a feature branch label on G', that would be what @andrew@lemmy.stuart.fun meant.
