+	be `rebase-cousins`, `no-rebase-cousins`, or a boolean. Setting to
+	true is equivalent to `--rebase-merges` without an argument, setting to

+	`--rebase-merges` with that value as its argument, and setting to false

+	command line without an argument overrides a `rebase.merges=false`
+	configuration but does not override other values of `rebase.merge`.
