-pull.ff::
- By default, Git does not create an extra merge commit when merging
- a commit that is a descendant of the current commit. Instead, the
- tip of the current branch is fast-forwarded. When set to `false`,
- this variable tells Git to create an extra merge commit in such
- a case (equivalent to giving the `--no-ff` option from the command
- line). When set to `only`, only such fast-forward merges are
- allowed (equivalent to giving the `--ff-only` option from the
- command line). This setting overrides `merge.ff` when pulling.
-
-pull.rebase::
- When true, rebase branches on top of the fetched branch, instead
- of merging the default branch from the default remote when "git
- pull" is run. See "branch.<name>.rebase" for setting this on a
- per-branch basis.
-+
-When `merges`, pass the `--rebase-merges` option to 'git rebase'
-so that the local merge commits are included in the rebase (see
-linkgit:git-rebase[1] for details).
-+
-When preserve, also pass `--preserve-merges` along to 'git rebase'
-so that locally committed merge commits will not be flattened
-by running 'git pull'.
-+
-When the value is `interactive`, the rebase is run in interactive mode.
-+
-*NOTE*: this is a possibly dangerous operation; do *not* use
-it unless you understand the implications (see linkgit:git-rebase[1]
-for details).

-pull.octopus::
- The default merge strategy to use when pulling multiple branches
- at once.
-
-pull.twohead::
- The default merge strategy to use when pulling a single branch.
