-merge.stat::
- Whether to print the diffstat between ORIG_HEAD and merge result
- at the end of the merge. True by default.
+merge.conflictstyle::
+ Specify the style in which conflicted hunks are written out to
+ working tree files upon merge. The default is "merge", which
+ shows a `<<<<<<<` conflict marker, changes made by one side,
+ a `=======` marker, changes made by the other side, and then
+ a `>>>>>>>` marker. An alternate style, "diff3", adds a `|||||||`
+ marker and the original text before the `=======` marker.
+
+merge.defaultToUpstream::
+ If merge is called without any commit argument, merge the upstream
+ branches configured for the current branch by using their last
+ observed values stored in their remote-tracking branches.
+ The values of the `branch.<current branch>.merge` that name the
+ branches at the remote named by `branch.<current branch>.remote`
+ are consulted, and then they are mapped via `remote.<remote>.fetch`
+ to their corresponding remote-tracking branches, and the tips of
+ these tracking branches are merged.
+
+merge.ff::
+ By default, git does not create an extra merge commit when merging
+ a commit that is a descendant of the current commit. Instead, the
+ tip of the current branch is fast-forwarded. When set to `false`,
+ this variable tells git to create an extra merge commit in such
+ a case (equivalent to giving the `--no-ff` option from the command
+ line). When set to `only`, only such fast-forward merges are
+ allowed (equivalent to giving the `--ff-only` option from the
+ command line).
merge.log::
- Whether to include summaries of merged commits in newly created
- merge commit messages. False by default.
+ 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.renameLimit::
The number of files to consider when performing rename detection
during a merge; if not specified, defaults to the value of
diff.renameLimit.
+merge.renormalize::
+ Tell git that canonical representation of files in the
+ repository has changed over time (e.g. earlier commits record
+ text files with CRLF line endings, but recent ones use LF line
+ endings). In such a repository, git can convert the data
+ recorded in commits to a canonical form before performing a
+ merge to reduce unnecessary conflicts. For more information,
+ see section "Merging branches with differing checkin/checkout
+ attributes" in linkgit:gitattributes[5].
+
+merge.stat::
+ Whether to print the diffstat between ORIG_HEAD and the merge result
+ at the end of the merge. True by default.
+
merge.tool::
Controls which merge resolution program is used by
- linkgit:git-mergetool[1]. Valid built-in values are: "kdiff3",
- "tkdiff", "meld", "xxdiff", "emerge", "vimdiff", "gvimdiff", and
- "opendiff". Any other value is treated is custom merge tool

+ "opendiff", "p4merge", "tkdiff", "tortoisemerge", "vimdiff"
+ and "xxdiff". Any other value is treated is custom merge tool
and there must be a corresponding mergetool.<tool>.cmd option.
merge.verbosity::
message if conflicts were detected. Level 1 outputs only
conflicts, 2 outputs conflicts and file changes. Level 5 and
above outputs debugging information. The default is level 2.
- Can be overridden by 'GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY' environment variable.
