merge: refuse --commit with --squash
Convert option_commit to tristate, representing the states of 'default/untouched', 'enabled-by-cli', 'disabled-by-cli'. With this in place, check whether option_commit was enabled by cli when squashing a merge. If so, error out, as this is not supported. Previously, when --squash was supplied, 'option_commit' was silently dropped. This could have been surprising to a user who tried to override the no-commit behavior of squash using --commit explicitly. Add a note to the --squash option for git-merge to clarify the incompatibility, and add a test case to t7600-merge.sh Cc: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Cc: Rafael Ascensão <rafa.almas@gmail.com> Cc: Johannes Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Vishal Verma <vishal@stellar.sh> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
