git-merge: make it usable as the first class UI
This teaches the oft-requested syntax git merge $commit to implement merging the named commit to the current branch. This hopefully would make "git merge" usable as the first class UI instead of being a mere backend for "git pull". Most notably, $commit above can be any committish, so you can say for example: git merge js/shortlog~2 to merge early part of a topic branch without merging the rest of it. A custom merge message can be given with the new --message=<msg> parameter. The message is prepended in front of the usual "Merge ..." message autogenerated with fmt-merge-message.
