Yeah rebasing is one of the really powerful things in Git but one of the things that takes a while to really get, at least that's been our experience with people new to Git. They treat it like Subversion++.

The other quirk that seems to throw people is the idea of an origin.. that there's the develop branch on your local repo and the develop branch on the origin (Bitbucket in your case) and that those can be different.

I still tend to use GUIs like SourceTree just because I like the visual representation of all the branches, the immediate view of if my local branch is in sync with the remote, etc.
