Selected Answer: A

In the event that you require a merge commit during a fast forward merge for record keeping purposes you can execute git merge with the --no-ff option. This command merges the specified branch into the current branch, but always generates a merge commit (even if it was a fast-forward merge). This is useful for documenting all merges that occur in your repository. Source: https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/using-branches/git-merge
