Re: [infinispan-dev] Infinispan 7.1 plan

rebase is a oneliner op per branch you want to reapply whereas cherry picking requires to manually select the commits you want. Underneath in git guts it probably does the same. I have to admit I barely had the occasion to want to click the GitHub UI button as except for simple documentation, reviewing code almost always require to fetch the branch and look at it in an IDE of sort for proper review. The documentation bit is actually even requiring local run since Markdown / Asciidoc and all tend to silently fail a syntax mistake.
