Thanks, that makes two votes for pull.ff only. Done.

Is it possible to use an old repository cloned back when the 
change to git was first announced and last updated around 
Sept. 25th, or should I start with a fresh clone? All tries
at updating my old copy report it's up to date, which can't
possibly be true. It doesn't look easy to recover the original
URL, nor the actual date of the last pull command. 

Thanks for everyone's help!
