I thought it's just a -c, -cc, and -m in better wording. No any
matrix:

-c  = --diff-merges=combined
-cc = --diff-merges=dense
-m  = --diff-merges=split

Just separate mutually exclusive options assembled into one multi-value
option, so it's explicit they are mutually exclusive. I don't see any
matrix here.

FWIW, those names make sense to me. Coupled with "none" or "off" for
disabling all of them.

Thanks, we have "off" along with your --no-diff-merges in already
submitted patches, and I see no harm in adding "none" as synonym, as
Junio seems to prefer it over "off".

Thanks,
