Yep, as I mention down-thread, merges only happen at GitHub/GitLab/etc.
The two mistaken scenarios I run into the most are:
1. `git pull` when I'm not in the right branch, which will want to do a merge.
2. When I have commit access on the master branch, and I do a `git merge branch` when that branch hasn't been properly rebased on master. My preference is no merge commit here, so I like that Git can catch this.
