Subject: [RFC PATCH 26/35] pull: add pull.mode
Date: Mon,  5 Jul 2021 07:32:00 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210705123209.1808663-27-felipe.contreras@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210705123209.1808663-1-felipe.contreras@gmail.com>

The evolution of pull options has somewhat served most users, however,
they have been found lacking for a very needed trio: merge / rebase /
fast-forward-only.

To avoid some of the problems of git pull Linus Torvalds suggested a
configuration pull.merge [1], however, instead of having pull.merge and
pull.rebase, we can have pull.mode which works for both.

Additionally this would allow us to have a saner per-branch
configuration: branch.<name>.pullMode.

This patch adds a pull.mode option with two possible values (for now);
merge and rebase. If set, it overrides what the user has specified in
pull.rebase, and it's updated with either --merge, or --rebase.
