We are at c1 and try to integrate with c2 and c3 at the same time, neither of which is a descendant of c1. We know that the only possible action is to create an octopus in this case, and that it is pretty much fundamental (i.e. it is not like "rebase" with further development will be able to handle this case). I however do not know if it is also obvious to total newbies who haven't even chosen between merge and rebase. I can see them complaining "why didn't I get asked to choose between rebase and merge" if we went ahead and created an octopus merge, especially the ones who would choose pull.rebase=yes once they learned Git a bit more. > +test_expect_success 'Cannot fast-forward with multiple heads' ' > + git reset --hard c0 && > + test_must_fail git -c pull.ff=only pull . c1 c2 c3 2>err && > + test_i18ngrep !
