This series of patches updates default commit message for git-merge command.

First patch adds alternative commit message formatting where each merged object is printed on new line and adds configuration option to enable new message formatting when specified number of merged commits is detected.

This feature is turned off by default in first patch. Second patch is optional and enables new behaviour when at least two additional commits are merged.

i.Dark_Templar (2):
  git-merge: add option to format default message using multiple lines
  Enable multiline merge commit message by default
