[PATCH 4/6] Documentation/git-merge.txt: improve short description in NAME

From: <hidden>
Date: 2016-10-05 14:55:06
Subsystem: documentation, the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Linus Torvalds

From: Sergey Organov <redacted>

Old description not only raised the question of why the tool is called
git-merge rather than git-join, but "join histories" also sounds like
very simple operation, something like what "git-merge -s ours" does.
