From: Paul Tan Date: Mon, 18 May 2015 13:45:40 GMT Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] make pull.ff=true override merge.ff Message-ID: <1431956742-25992-1-git-send-email-pyokagan@gmail.com> This is a re-roll of [1], primarily to remove the use of "verbose". Since b814da8 (pull: add pull.ff configuration, 2014-01-15), running git-pull with the configuration pull.ff=false or pull.ff=only is equivalent to passing --no-ff and --ff-only to git-merge. However, if pull.ff=true, no switch is passed to git-merge. This leads to the confusing behavior where pull.ff=false or pull.ff=only is able to override merge.ff, while pull.ff=true is unable to. This patch series adds a failing test to demonstrates the above, and fixes it. The documentation is also tweaked to clarify that pull.ff is meant to override merge.ff. The last patch makes pull.ff consistent with merge.ff by supporting the config aliases of true and false (on, off, 0, 1).
