Subject: [PATCH] git-merge: document the -S option
Message-ID: <1381794065-6657-1-git-send-email-boklm@mars-attacks.org>
URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/1381794065-6657-1-git-send-email-boklm%40mars-attacks.org

```
The option to gpg sign a merge commit is available but was not
documented. Use wording from the git-commit(1) manpage.
