Series [v2] builtin/pull.c: teach run_merge() to honor rebase.autostash config | expand

Commit Message

John Cai Jan. 6, 2022, 2:58 p.m. UTC
On a git pull --rebase, if fast forward is possible we run merge.
However, merge will not honor rebase.autostash if it is configured. This
has the unfortunate result of

$ git config rebase.autostash true
$ git pull --rebase

to ignore the rebase.autostash value.

Allow run_merge() to honor rebase.autostash by passing in
config_autostash if --autostash or --no-autostash flags are not
explicitly set.

Notes:
    Fix a bug that prevents git pull --rebase from honoring the rebase.autostash
    config value.

    Changes since V1:
    - used simpler fix as proposed by Junio
    - removed redundant test cases
