Documentation: merging a tag is a special case
When asking Git to merge a tag (such as a signed tag or annotated tag), it will always create a merge commit even if fast-forward was possible. It's like having --no-ff present on the command line. It's a difference from the default behavior described in git-merge.txt. It should be documented as an exception of "FAST-FORWARD MERGE" section and "--ff" option description.
