   1merge.conflictstyle::
   2        Specify the style in which conflicted hunks are written out to
   3        working tree files upon merge.  The default is "merge", which
   4        shows a `<<<<<<<` conflict marker, changes made by one side,
   5        a `=======` marker, changes made by the other side, and then
   6        a `>>>>>>>` marker.  An alternate style, "diff3", adds a `|||||||`
   7        marker and the original text before the `=======` marker.
   8
   9merge.log::
  10        In addition to branch names, populate the log message with at
  11        most the specified number of one-line descriptions from the
  12        actual commits that are being merged.  Defaults to false, and
  13        true is a synonym for 20.
  14
  15merge.renameLimit::
  16        The number of files to consider when performing rename detection
  17        during a merge; if not specified, defaults to the value of
  18        diff.renameLimit.
  19
  20merge.renormalize::
  21        Tell git that canonical representation of files in the
  22        repository has changed over time (e.g. earlier commits record
  23        text files with CRLF line endings, but recent ones use LF line
  24        endings).  In such a repository, git can convert the data
  25        recorded in commits to a canonical form before performing a
  26        merge to reduce unnecessary conflicts.  For more information,
  27        see section "Merging branches with differing checkin/checkout
  28        attributes" in linkgit:gitattributes[5].
  29
  30merge.stat::
  31        Whether to print the diffstat between ORIG_HEAD and the merge result
  32        at the end of the merge.  True by default.
  33
  34merge.tool::
  35        Controls which merge resolution program is used by
  36        linkgit:git-mergetool[1].  Valid built-in values are: "araxis",
  37        "bc3", "diffuse", "ecmerge", "emerge", "gvimdiff", "kdiff3", "meld",
  38        "opendiff", "p4merge", "tkdiff", "tortoisemerge", "vimdiff"
  39        and "xxdiff".  Any other value is treated is custom merge tool
  40        and there must be a corresponding mergetool.<tool>.cmd option.
  41
  42merge.verbosity::
  43        Controls the amount of output shown by the recursive merge
  44        strategy.  Level 0 outputs nothing except a final error
  45        message if conflicts were detected. Level 1 outputs only
  46        conflicts, 2 outputs conflicts and file changes.  Level 5 and
  47        above outputs debugging information.  The default is level 2.
  48        Can be overridden by the 'GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY' environment variable.
  49
  50merge.<driver>.name::
  51        Defines a human-readable name for a custom low-level
  52        merge driver.  See linkgit:gitattributes[5] for details.
  53
  54merge.<driver>.driver::
  55        Defines the command that implements a custom low-level
  56        merge driver.  See linkgit:gitattributes[5] for details.
  57
  58merge.<driver>.recursive::
  59        Names a low-level merge driver to be used when
  60        performing an internal merge between common ancestors.
  61        See linkgit:gitattributes[5] for details.
