Hi,

I just looked how you solved that and wanted to start a discussion but
you've swooped in first, find. ;-)

Well, when I do -m <msg>, I expect that my commit message is exactly
<msg>, and not <msg> with appended stuff.
Of course, it doesn't matter what I expect, but I think what the
documentation says matters.
This is (in "master" and in "builtin-merge" of vmiklos.git):

-m <msg>::
	The commit message to be used for the merge commit (in case
	it is created). The `git-fmt-merge-msg` script can be used
	to give a good default for automated `git-merge` invocations.

So it is not mentioned that a standard message is appended, and thus the
original behavior is somehow "buggy" :)

Regards,
  Stephan
