The _only_ difference is when

 (1) "git merge" is run interactively;
 (2) the merge goes cleanly that it does not need to ask help from the
     user to resolve conflicts; and
 (3) it records the result by creating a commit.

Because your use case with "--no-commit" does not satisfy the last
criteria, I do not expect you to see any difference.  Otherwise you may
have found a bug.

As noted in

    http://git-blame.blogspot.com/2012/02/anticipating-git-1710.html

please try out the version from the 'master' branch before it gets
released, so that you can help us avoid surprises in the corner cases.

Thanks.
