I'm using git for a time now and the thing that annoyed me the most is that git "loose" branch information, ie if I have branch1 and master that I do dev on branch1 (let say 3 commit) and that I want to deliver on master, if there has not been any commit on master, when I do git checkout master git merge branch1 git branch -d branch1 then git resolve as fast forward and then make branch1 "disapear" (ie on gitk I can't notice just by looking at the tree that there was a branch there) the solution is to use git merge --no-ff branch1 I would like that it is the default for all branch and that I use --ff when I want to do fast forward merge I know that I can set it up for one branch git config add branch.master.mergeoption --no-ff but I want it to be the default no just for one branch but for all branch git config add branch.*.mergeoption --no-ff don't work.... how can I do that? thanks JLM -- KISS!
