RE: [PATCH v3 0/8] Handle pull option precedence

Elijah Newren via GitGitGadget wrote:

Based on a recent list of rules for flag/option precedence for git-pull[1]
from Junio (particularly focusing on rebase vs. merge vs. fast-forward),
here's an attempt to implement and document it. Given multiple recent
surprises from users about some of these behaviors[2][3] and a coworker just
yesterday expressing some puzzlement with git-pull and rebase vs. merge, it
seems like a good time to address some of these issues.

Since the handling of conflicting options was holding up two of Alex's
patches[4][5], and his patches fix some of the tests, I also include those
two patches in my series, with a few small changes to the first (so I've
kept him as author) and more substantial changes to the second (so I've
given him an Initial-patch-by attribution).

Changes since v2:

 * Remove some unnecessary changes in patch 4, pointed out by Junio.

All my previous objections to v2 still stand:
