Please announce the branch name being merged so that the listing is
easier to follow (possibly only with --verbose, -v option). Add
"Branch: <name>" just before the merge is attempted. somethiglike this

It is not exactly "easier" to follow in your case. It is more
text and there is no immediately visible cue that the two
lines are related. You have to give the observer this information.
Put reference name and SHA-1 on the same line?

That would work too. As long as the branch name appears there
(optionally only with -v in effect).
