How do I merge with --no-ff in SmartGit/hg?

Question

If you want to keep track of the moment you started a new feature-branch you can use

git merge --no-ff -m "merged feature-branch" some-feature-branch

As described here . How can I achieve this using the SmartGit GUI?

Answer 1

When using Branch|Merge from the project window and SmartGit/Hg detects that a fast-forward merge will be possible, it will ask you whether to do so. The same happens when using Branch|Merge from the Log.
