The last end-user use I can think of for git-merge instead
of git-pull is providing a custom commit message.
Would it be possible to add -m and -e options to git-pull?
The problem I can see is that the latter would have to be added to
git-merge, and the guts there are a bit intricate; it uses git-commit-tree
directly rather than git-commit, so I can't just pass through the
arguments.
How often is this desired, when the merge is clean?
If the answer is "not so often", you can already use "commit
--amend" after "pull" creates an automated merge commit.
