That is the least interesting thing the log message for this commit
can talk about.  Instead readers should be able to learn things like
these from the log message (I am not saying the log message should
have these in an enumerated list; I am just enumerating these as
samples):

 - Why does this exist?  

 - What does a tool author want to use the mechanism for, and how
   does the tool author use it?  

 - This mechanism allows tool authors to say "never allow autoMerge
   for this tool", but there is no provision to let them say "always
   use autoMerge without allowing users to turn it off".

It also needs a bit of documentation update to mention that
individual mergetool backend can choose not to trigger the feature
at all, even if the user configures it with mergetool.autoMerge and
mergetool.<tool>.autoMerge options.

Thanks.
