I think it would be better to document the effect of this option rather 
than the implementation detail. It is confusing at the moment as it 
talks about 'git merge' but we don't allow this option with merges.

It's a shame this changes the rebase_options that are passed in, this 
function should ideally not modify what is passed in.

Instead of modifying opts->strategy_opts perhaps we could just use a 
temporary variable
