Hi Mike,

I don't think there's a point in discussing this off-list.

Your intentions are clearer now, yes, or else I would have asked more.

I still don't like the idea of having a new command just for the purpose
of fast-forwarding local branches from specified upstreams.

What's wrong with "git merge --ff-only" once you check them out? We have
all the gory messages when you checkout a branch or use the git prompt
or "branch -vv". And if you don't - how is forgetting to "ff-refs"
better than forgetting to "merge --ff-only"?

In short, I don't see a problem that this is solving, but maybe it's
because we use local branches differently, I dunno.

If other people were interested they should or would have come up with
comments, I think (as a general rule).

Cheers,
Michael
