IIRC, in that earlier discussion Linus said he used a prepare-commit-msg hook these days instead of repo-abbrev. And it should be able to handle this case, as well. Something like this seems to work for me: $ cat .git/hooks/prepare-commit-msg #!/bin/sh case "$2" in merge) perl -i -pe ' s{Merge (.*) of https://github.com/gitster/git}{Merge $1} ' "$1" ;; esac $ git pull https://github.com/gitster/git next [...] $ git log -1 --format=%s Merge branch 'next' -Peff
