+merge.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).
