This has multiple benefits: with more than one of {"--ff", "--no-ff",
"--ff-only"} respects the last option; also the command-line option to
always take precedence over the config file option.

Do we really want --no-ff-only? I would rather just disable it, see the
updated patch.

Indeed, done.

Actually there is also --no-squash, used by e.g. git-pull internally.
You definitely don't want a five-state option. :-) So for now I would
rather let --squash/--no-squash alone.
