Simple Git Fast Forward

If you get the befuddling message:

Your branch is behind 'origin/master' by 1 commit, and can be fast-forwarded

you can just run:

git pull

Or, if that doesn't work:

git pull origin master

(I think.)

The above might seem obvious to some, but Googling "git fast forward" proved surprisingly unfruitful. HTH.
