Details I tried to merge from MergeTest to master. After checking out master, I run below command.

C:\work\nf-interpreter-techcap>git branch
  MergeTest
  TemplateModification
  UpdateBuildInstruction
* master

C:\work\nf-interpreter-techcap>git merge --no-commit origin/MergeTest Updating 197ad33..028f9f5 Fast-forward mergeTest.txt | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) create mode 100644 mergeTest.txt

C:\work\nf-interpreter-techcap>git status
On branch master
Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 1 commit.
  (use "git push" to publish your local commits)
nothing to commit, working tree clean

If I add --no-ff option, it works properly. I think --no-commit option should be worked without --no-ff.
