To prepare our uses for the upcoming changes we should warn them and let
them know that they will need to specify a merge or a rebase in the
future (when a non-fast-forward situation arises). Also, let them know
we fallback to 'git pull --merge', so when the obsoletion of this mode
comes, they know what to type without interrupting or changing their
workflow.
