$ git checkout -b non-ff origin/master
Previous HEAD position was 59f4325222 Add "test-tool dump-reftable" command.
Branch 'non-ff' set up to track remote branch 'master' from 'origin'.
Switched to a new branch 'non-ff'

$ git reset --hard HEAD^
HEAD is now at 56a57652ef Sync with Git 2.30.2 for CVE-2021-21300

$ cat .git/logs/refs/heads/non-ff

How can I tell from this reflog that "moving to HEAD^" is a non-FF update?
