From: Thomas Koutcher <thomas.koutcher@xxxxxxxxx> When `merge.ff` is set to `only` in .gitconfig, `git subtree pull` will fail with error `fatal: Not possible to fast-forward, aborting.`, but the command does want to make merges in these places. Add `--no-ff` argument to `git merge` to enforce this behaviour.
