Pulling without specifying how to reconcile divergent branches is discouraged.
You can squelch this message by running one of the following commands sometime before your next pull:
git config pull.rebase false # merge (the default strategy)
git config pull.rebase true # rebase
git config pull.ff only # fast-forward only
You can replace "git config" with "git config --global" to set a default preference for all repositories.
You can also pass --rebase, --no-rebase, or --ff-only on the command line to override the configured default per invocation.
Solution
You can set the strategy for each git repository, as shown below.
1
git config pull.rebase false
Or set the default strategy globally, as shown below.
1
git config --global pull.rebase false
