Hrm, I'm not sure this is really cleaner. The two operators consist
of all dots only coincidentally, this is not functionally inherent.
So I think it's better to keep them apart.
Let's see.. [Time passes. A patch materializes at six o'clock.]
With a little helper factored out this doesn't look as bad as I
imagined. Maybe we can take it. What do you think?

Sort of; I checked that the two forms (with ... and $(git-merge-base))
gave the same results for 7b8cf0cf and 51d1e83f, that's all. For a
proper test script we'd need to create a repo for which git-merge-base
can report multiple results. I wasn't able to come up with the needed
commands without thinking and gave up for now. Am working on it..
