And I guess the natural follow up question is: would it make sense to
tell git pull to do a "merge" for not-checked-out branches where we
can safely tell that the resulting "merge" will actually be a
fast-forward?

Would that be unsafe in any way?

Because when I "git checkout bla-stale-branch" to help a fellow
developer again, I have to remember to "git merge
origin/bla-stale-branch" to get a much needed fast-forward before
starting to work.

that's a bit of silly maintenance just to keep things tidy, that git
could keep tidy ;-) ... ]
