Hello,

As I mentioned in my `git update` patch series [1], I spent several days
re-reading old threads looking for anything related to `git pull` and
fast-forward throughout the entire history of the git mailing list.

I documented everything that I found of interest, and the result is a
pretty lengthy article.

Long story short: a new `git update` command fixes all the issues people
have been reporting for almost a decade now.

Even if it's not a particularly interesting read, it's a good reference
that records all the attempts that have been made, along with many ideas
and proposals.
