Just like "git checkout -" is a short-hand for "git checkout @{-1}" to
conveniently switch back to the previous branch, "git merge -" is a
short-hand for "git merge @{-1}" to conveniently merge the previous branch.
It will allow me to say:
$ git checkout -b au/topic
$ git am -s ./+au-topic.mbox
$ git checkout pu
$ git merge -
which is an extremely typical and repetitive operation during my git day.
