If a branch does rebase all people who commit to it need to make sure
not to overwrite others' work. Your pushes are always non-fast-forward,
so you do not notice you did not incorporate someone else's new work if
you do not take care.
There is the git push --force-with-lease option to avoid that. Its goal
is to force a non-fast-forward push, but only if the remote position
(HEAD) is actually where you expect it to, that is no work you don't
know about has been pushed in the mean time.
I strongly recommend to use --force-with-lease on non-user branches.
User branches you usually control totally and are the only one to push
to, so that's less an issue.
One easy way to avoid this is to just have only one person pushing to a
certain branch.
