Let me explain it again. Under "rebase" I mean result of operation
git rebase. Under "push" I mean result of operation git push.

I took branch kf5 from main kopete repository. Then I rebased it on top
of master and pushed to my personal cloned git repository into branch
master-kf5.

Now I wanted to push this master-kf5 into branch master to main kopete
repository. And push failed.

Strictly speaking it git rebase --onto & git push. But with fact that it
does not use any force push (therefore no history overwrite).

There is no merge commit, in fact it is just fast forward. And yes it is
a big.

It is a more clear now?
