Sometimes I'd like to repeat a previously performed merge, preserving
the commit message.  And, if possible, the conflict resolutions.
Is it "git merge commit^2"?
I suppose that was an obvious one to leave out of my alternatives list.

This is what I've been doing, but it requires I cut and paste the commit
message.  Preserving timestamps, author, etc. is even more awkward.
In the meantime, "git commit --amend -C commit" would be a
workaround, I would guess.

Ah!  A useful feature I was not familiar with.
Definitely helps a great deal.  Thank you!
