+INCOMPATIBLE OPTIONS
+--------------------
+
+git-rebase has many flags that are incompatible with each other,
+predominantly due to the fact that it has three different underlying
+implementations:

+ * one based on linkgit:git-am[1] (the default)
+ * one based on linkgit:git-merge-recursive[1] (merge backend)
