Of course you have to push after the merge. But you can try to do the 
merge and to check the history first.
Instead of bringing in hundreds of commits with a rebase you would bring 
in one single merge commit.
If you're ok with the history, do the push.

Why do you want to care about master-kf5 at all once you brought 
everything into master?

It brings all porting changes done in master-kf5 into master. Push 
shouldn't fail in this case because you will end up with one single 
merge commit.
