Even on Linux, if your project is well modularized and your
workflow is "merge small and merge often" like the kernel is, it
is not unusual that the final diffstat takes much longer than a
merge.  But the diffstat is not an eye-candy but is an important
safety measure from the workflow point of view.

Isn't this hunk wrong?

[merge]
	diffstat = 0
        diffstat = false

should both mean "merge.diffstat is set to false".
"git config --bool" does that.

And when merge.diffstat does not appear in the configuration
file, "git config --bool merge.diffstat" exits non-zero.

if test -z "$show_diffstat"; then
    test "$(git-config --bool merge.diffstat)" = false && show_diffstat=false
    test -z "$show_diffstat" && show_diffstat=t
fi
