You have to turn rerere on, though, right? I've never done that. I've also never worked with long-running branches — tend to strongly prefer integrating into main and using feature flags if necessary. Jujutsu doesn't have anything like rerere as far as I know.
Hmm, yeah looks like it is default off. Probably some git flow automation tool or other sort of bad corporate/consultant disseminated default config at a past job left the impression that it was default on. It's the solution to a lot of papercuts working with long-running branches as well as the source of new problems as stated above; problems that are visible with merge commits but hidden in rebases.
