That is not a valid question. When Linus added the original
git merge 'message' HEAD $other_branch
there wasn't any merge strategy switch and all the other frills even
envisioned yet. With what we know about Git today, even you could
have answered "Will git merge be more involved compared to the
original?" 8 years ago, but without that, not even Linus nor I did
anticipate that the command line interface would become a pain point
when enhancing it.
