git-merge-ff.sh should be executable, added to .gitignore and the
strategy should be added to the available strategies.

And somehow it did not work for me at all:

% git merge -s ff origin/master
git-merge.sh: needs update   
Trying really trivial in-index merge...

In-index merge
[..]
% git show HEAD|grep Merge
Merge: 117a93c... f578825...
    Merge commit 'origin/master'
