NAME
       git-fmt-merge-msg - Produce a merge commit message

SYNOPSIS
       git fmt-merge-msg [--log | --no-log] <$GIT_DIR/FETCH_HEAD
       git fmt-merge-msg [--log | --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
	   In addition to branch names, populate the log message with one-line descriptions from the actual commits that are being merged.

       --no-log
	   Do not list one-line descriptions from the actual commits being merged.

       --summary, --no-summary
	   Synonyms to --log and --no-log; these are deprecated and will be removed in the future.

       -F <file>, --file <file>
	   Take the list of merged objects from <file> instead of stdin.

CONFIGURATION
       merge.log
	   Whether to include summaries of merged commits in newly merge commit messages. False by default.

       merge.summary
	   Synonym to merge.log; this is deprecated and will be removed in the future.
