Rebasing can be annoying, but isn't inherently difficult. Typically
you don't rebase until you're ready for others to review and commit
them.

I'm curious if you know how to use interactive rebase to apply fix-ups
to commits? If not, I'll be happy to walk you through it. It greatly
simplifies the workflow.
