I don't know where that is being said, but it's wrong: --ff-only is meant for merge only. > --- a/builtin/pull.c > +++ b/builtin/pull.c > @@ -1046,9 +1046,14 @@ int cmd_pull(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) > > can_ff = get_can_ff(&orig_head, &merge_heads.oid[0]); > > - if (rebase_unspecified && !opt_ff && !can_ff) { > - if (opt_verbosity >= 0) > - show_advice_pull_non_ff(); > + if (!can_ff) { > + if (opt_ff) { > + if (!strcmp(opt_ff, "--ff-only")) > + die_ff_impossible(); As I've mentioned multiple times already, this is wrong. The advice clearly says: You can also pass --rebase, --no-rebase, or --ff-only on the command line to override the configured default per invocation.
