    [pull]
      rebase = true
Don't use this one unless you really know what you're doing. Multiple co-workers have gotten into really bizarre rebases because of it (like rebasing 70+ commits from master on top of their branch instead of the other way around), it seems to cause more problems than it solves.

The man page for "git pull" even has a warning about using this flag.
