Neat. Sign-off?

Maybe something like the following would be good on top (or maybe not;
you decide).

Subject: fmt-merge-msg --log-limit to override merge.loglimit configuration
Yes, one can already use "git -c merge.loglimit=n fmt-merge-msg", but
maybe providing an option name makes it more obvious that this can
be overridden on the command-line.
This also provides --log-limit=0 / "[merge] loglimit = 0" to not limit
the number of commits summarized at all, which I would expect to
be the most interesting case. So you can use
"git fmt-merge-msg --log-limit=0" in your scripts to get a message
like
Merge branch 'long-topic'
* log-topic:
commit 1
commit 2
[...]
commit 1001
commit 1002
and not to limit the number of commits summarized at all.
This patch does not propagate the option from "git merge" yet.

Also untested. I still haven't figured out the context where this
would be most useful, just thought it sounded like a fun idea.
