Explanation

{"question_number": 4, "question": "Which Git command must be used to require a merge commit during a fast forward merge?", "correct_answer": "A", "explanation": "By default, Git performs a fast-forward merge when possible, simply moving the branch pointer forward without creating a merge commit. The --no-ff flag (no fast-forward) forces Git to always create a merge commit, preserving the record that a feature branch was merged. The correct command is git merge --no-ff newfeat123456789, run from the primary branch prim987654321. Options B, C, and D use invalid Git subcommands or flags.", "generated_by": "claude-sonnet", "llm_judge_score": 4}
