git merge --no-commit creates a merge commit when run in IntelliJ IDEA

Viewed 692

I'm trying to merge master branch to my feature branch using IntelliJ IDEA's UI option. VCS -> Git -> Merge Changes....

I select the checkbox No commit and select the origin/master branch to merge.

However, after doing this and I run git log I see that a new commit was created with the merged changes.

The same happens if I use the Terminal window in IntelliJ by running

git merge origin/master --no-commit.

When I do this in Git Bash it works correctly (the commit is not created).

Is there any known issue related to this problem with IntelliJ?

My IntelliJ IDEA version is: 2017.1.1 (build 171.4073.35)
