Only at the very end of the command line if you omit something that
is required, Git helps by defaulting the missing rev to HEAD.  You
can be a bit more explicit in the middle, i.e. instead of asking
"Which are branches that already has been merged in --verbose?", you
can ask "branch --merged HEAD --verbose", meaning "What are branhes
that already has been merged in HEAD, please give me a verbose
answer?" perhaps?

This gives the same result as

git branch --verbose --merged

namely _only_ listing the current branch verbosely.  Use of --verbose
kills any effect of --merged: instead of branches merged to the named
branch (or to the default of HEAD), _only_ the named branch (or the
default of HEAD) gets listed.

So no.
