git-rev-list and git-format-patch script oddness

When I run git-format-patch, it insists on outputting merges that have already been merged upstream, regardless of the fact that git-merge-base knows better.

Is there a way to get it to skip merged-in patches that git already has detected as merged upstream?

cheers,
martin
