Re: default behaviour for `gitmerge` (no arguments)

I wondered why it doesn't hook into interpret_branch_name(), and instead 
adds itself to the static substitute_branch_name(); it forbids the use

I _think_ it was to allow something like

	git log -g @{u}

but frankly, this is so long ago, I do not remember, I reconstructed this 
reasoning as being the most likely.
