No, there isn't such a command. Merges must be done one at a time
because they use the index and working tree to report conflicts.
So what you are asking for is the moral equivalent of:
for i in foo bar; do
git checkout $i && git merge master
done
and you could do it that way, except that the 'merge' step may fail with
conflicts that need to be fixed up by hand.
