That would have been me saying make -m default.  Because on git.git
I don't really see a huge performance difference on my Mac, and the
bigger projects that I work on are on Cygwin, where *everything*
is slow as hell.

The few places there that I do need rebase, I actually also need
the rename detection that am -3 or rebase -m would do, so I just
wind up paying the penalty anyway.  Or really I just get burned
because I run the op without the magic "do what I really need"
flag, and it dies, and I have to reset and start it again, which
just takes longer than if -3 or -m was the default.

But that's not the situation everyone else has, so its reasonable
that -m ain't the default.  ;-)
