I think we need to be more concrete than that. What is the "big merge case"? If there are any unmerged paths?

What exactly should be cut out, and how can it be configured? Should you have "status.unmerged" to cut out certain things? Which things (of staged, unstaged, and untracked)? Or should it go the other way, with a status.showStaged variable which can be set to "always", "never", or "unmerged" (and probably adding an "unmerged" option to "status.showUntrackedFiles).
