Can this be made easier? I could imagine request-pull learning
--ff-only that generates a message like
Greg,
Please pull --ff-only
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux-stable.git
linux-2.6.34.y
to get the following changes [...]
which could work ok if the recipient notices the --ff-only, but I
wonder if there is a simpler way.
Thanks for the food for thought,
Jonathan
