So, it appears to be impossible to set or change the log message in any
way when doing "git merge --squash". I've tried all of these, at least:
* --log
* --no-log
* --log=0
* -m foo
No matter what options I provide the squash merge commit message always
appears as the standard computed message, completely unchanged.
The only solution I've found is go whack the .git/SQUASH_MSG file
directly after the merge command completes!!
Is this really right? It seems ridiculous to me that I cannot control
that message from the command line. Why is the --squash version of the
merge command so anemic in this respect compared to a "normal" merge
command?
I'm using Git 1.8.5.3; maybe this is improved in a newer version?
