NAME¶
git-fmt-merge-msg - Produce a merge commit messageSYNOPSIS¶
git fmt-merge-msg [-m <message>] [--log[=<n>] | --no-log] <$GIT_DIR/FETCH_HEAD git fmt-merge-msg [-m <message>] [--log[=<n>] | --no-log] -F <file>
DESCRIPTION¶
Takes the list of merged objects on stdin and produces a suitable commit message to be used for the merge commit, usually to be passed as the <merge-message> argument of git merge.OPTIONS¶
--log[=<n>]In addition to branch names, populate the log
message with one-line descriptions from the actual commits that are being
merged. At most <n> commits from each merge parent will be used (20 if
<n> is omitted). This overrides the merge.log configuration
variable.
--no-log
Do not list one-line descriptions from the
actual commits being merged.
--summary, --no-summary
Synonyms to --log and --no-log; these are
deprecated and will be removed in the future.
-m <message>, --message <message>
Use <message> instead of the branch
names for the first line of the log message. For use with --log.
-F <file>, --file <file>
Take the list of merged objects from
<file> instead of stdin.
CONFIGURATION¶
merge.branchdescIn addition to branch names, populate the log
message with the branch description text associated with them. Defaults to
false.
merge.log
In addition to branch names, populate the log
message with at most the specified number of one-line descriptions from the
actual commits that are being merged. Defaults to false, and true is a synonym
for 20.
merge.summary
Synonym to merge.log; this is deprecated and
will be removed in the future.
