1 merge.conflictstyle::
2 Specify the style in which conflicted hunks are written out to
3 working tree files upon merge. The default is "merge", which
4 shows `<<<<<<<` conflict marker, change made by one side,
5 `=======` marker, change made by the other side, and then
6 `>>>>>>>` marker. An alternate style, "diff3", adds `|||||||`
7 marker and the original text before `=======` marker.

9 merge.log::
10 Whether to include summaries of merged commits in newly created
11 merge commit messages. False by default.
12
13 merge.renameLimit::
14 The number of files to consider when performing rename detection
15 during a merge; if not specified, defaults to the value of
16 diff.renameLimit.

19 Whether to print the diffstat between ORIG_HEAD and the merge result
20 at the end of the merge. True by default.

24 linkgit:git-mergetool[1]. Valid built-in values are: "kdiff3",
25 "tkdiff", "meld", "xxdiff", "emerge", "vimdiff", "gvimdiff", and
26 "opendiff". Any other value is treated is custom merge tool
27 and there must be a corresponding mergetool.<tool>.cmd option.
28
29 merge.verbosity::
30 Controls the amount of output shown by the recursive merge
31 strategy. Level 0 outputs nothing except a final error
32 message if conflicts were detected. Level 1 outputs only
33 conflicts, 2 outputs conflicts and file changes. Level 5 and
34 above outputs debugging information. The default is level 2.
35 Can be overridden by 'GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY' environment variable.
