Don, that definitely worked for all but a small portion of the log. That really helps. In a copy of the actual log, I ran the code you gave me and it did merge most lines.
I ran the od -bc command against it and I am seeing \n in some lines in the statement text= field. So when I view the log, some of the statement text= field content is still on their own line.
It sounds like the \n means new line. Would it be possible to remove the \n if it does not precede the timestamp= field if that is the case?

git-fmt-merge-msg
GIT-FMT-MERGE-MSG(1) Git Manual GIT-FMT-MERGE-MSG(1)
NAME
git-fmt-merge-msg - Produce a merge commit message
SYNOPSIS
git fmt-merge-msg [-m <message>] [--log[=<n>] | --no-log]
git fmt-merge-msg [-m <message>] [--log[=<n>] | --no-log] -F <file>
DESCRIPTION
Takes the list of merged objects on stdin and produces a suitable commit message to be used for the merge commit, usually to be passed as
the <merge-message> argument of git merge.
This command is intended mostly for internal use by scripts automatically invoking git merge.
OPTIONS
--log[=<n>]
In addition to branch names, populate the log message with one-line descriptions from the actual commits that are being merged. At most
<n> commits from each merge parent will be used (20 if <n> is omitted). This overrides the merge.log configuration variable.
--no-log
Do not list one-line descriptions from the actual commits being merged.
--[no-]summary
Synonyms to --log and --no-log; these are deprecated and will be removed in the future.
-m <message>, --message <message>
Use <message> instead of the branch names for the first line of the log message. For use with --log.
-F <file>, --file <file>
Take the list of merged objects from <file> instead of stdin.
CONFIGURATION
merge.branchdesc
In addition to branch names, populate the log message with the branch description text associated with them. Defaults to false.
merge.log
In addition to branch names, populate the log message with at most the specified number of one-line descriptions from the actual
commits that are being merged. Defaults to false, and true is a synonym for 20.
merge.summary
Synonym to merge.log; this is deprecated and will be removed in the future.
EXAMPLE
$ git fetch origin master
$ git fmt-merge-msg --log <$GIT_DIR/FETCH_HEAD
Print a log message describing a merge of the "master" branch from the "origin" remote.
