M-x git-merge will ask for an commitish, and merge with it.
A new submenu is also available for merging with local and remote
branch.
---
The problem here, which is similar to the one that exist now when one
merge from outside Emacs, is that in case of conflict, Emacs doesn't
look to the index, and so, when one commit the resolved conflict,
one might forget to select all file that should be selected for the
commit to be what is needed.
This problem could be even worse with rebasing, as rebasing is a more
destructive action than merging.
