git rebase --rebase-merges commandline switch was introduced in Git
version v2.18.0 (released on 2018-06-21) to replace the --preserve-merges
commandline switch to git rebase. Since v2.22.0 the old --preserve-merges
is offically deprecated.
Replace the deprecated usage of --preserve-merges with the newer --rebase-merges
option on all occurences.
The decision was made that the git version v2.18.0 as the minimum required version
is reasonably old enough to assume that the user has it (or a newer version)
installed on his machine. Therefore no version dependend logic on which
switch to select was implemented here.
