If a lot of objects is merged at once, default commit message
could become one very long line, which might be inconvenient to read.
This change implements an option to change default autogenerated message
so it'd take multiple lines, but each line wouldn't be long.
An artificial example.
Original merge commit message:
Merge branch 'branch_with_some_long_name_1', remote-tracking branch 'clone/remote_branch_with_some_name', tags 'some_tag' and 'some_other_tag'; commit 'ae46a39cead2b42282abce725e90b561c06e94ba'; commit '33d0281e0eeb2a5e9907ebedc230e28c46865092' into merge7
Multiline merge commit message:
Merge 6 commits into merge8
Following commits are merged:
branch 'branch_with_some_long_name_1'
remote-tracking branch 'clone/remote_branch_with_some_name'
tag 'some_tag'
tag 'some_other_tag'
commit 'ae46a39cead2b42282abce725e90b561c06e94ba'
commit '33d0281e0eeb2a5e9907ebedc230e28c46865092'
