Subject: [PATCH v3 5/5] fmt-merge-msg: Update fmt-merge-msg and merge-config documentation
Date: Sat, 21 Aug 2010 00:45:02 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1282331702-5115-6-git-send-email-artagnon@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1282331702-5115-1-git-send-email-artagnon@gmail.com>

Update the documentation of fmt-merge-msg and merge-config to reflect
the fact that `merge.log` can either be a boolean or integer option
now, instead of just a boolean.
