For example:
--fast-forward on:boot,ttp,tos
Even if it turns out that this does not work for PC (see above), I still
think this is an interesting feature. I might even have use for it even if
it would not work with PC. For non-C projects I use a different editor, and
of course it has the same keyboard repeat problems as PC has.
Comments?
In case you implement this, one should still be able to override (toggle)
this setting with the usual keyboard shortcut for enabling/disabling
fast-forward mode.
