This patch-series implements support for per branch configuration of git-merge, using entries (branch.<name>.mergeoptions) in .git/config. There is also a new option, --no-ff, which can be used to force git-merge to create merge commits even when the merge was a fast-forward. Finally, the new optiond --ff and --commit can be used to override setting specified in .git/config. Note: patch 1/5 is a resend of the testscript for git-merge, this time with correct mode bits.
