yes and no... it doesn't auto-magically allow me to do what  a merge
conflict does. which is put together a diff. all it really did was not
commit the auto merge.

as far as --no-ff I'm not saying it commits the same way but I didn't
see any difference in the resulting diffs, which, imho, all that
matters is whether the resulting merged code is correct.
