To prepare our uses for the upcoming changes we should warn them and let them know that they will need to specify a merge or a rebase in the future (when a non-fast-forward situation arises). Also, let them know we fallback to 'git pull --merge', so when the obsoletion of this mode comes, they know what to type without interrupting or changing their workflow.
