Setting rebase to true by default is not a good idea if you push your code to your dev branch regularly (rather than just committing).

I think that's a bit of an exaggeration; "pull.rebase=true" should be fine as long as you don't have local merge commits that need to be rebased on top of someone else's changes. With ordinary commits, it shouldn't really matter how frequently you (or others) push.

"git rebase" has --preserve-merges (apparently renamed to --rebase-merges a few years ago) to recreate those local merge commits, maybe it can be set somehow for this as well?

Exactly. That’s the default I use. You can set it via:

    git config --global pull.rebase merges
