I was going to ask whether this should be passing through "verify", and
allowing its "no-" variant, but there is no "--verify" in git-merge.
Arguably there should be (for consistency and to countermand an earlier
--no-verify), but that is outside the scope of your fix (sadly if
somebody does change that, they'll have to remember to touch this spot,
too, but I don't think it can be helped).
This seems simple enough, though. Like this?

[PATCH] Remove negation from the merge option "--no-verify"

This allows re-enabling hooks disabled by an earlier "--no-verify"
in command-line and makes the interface more consistent.
Yeah, I don't see any problems in the patch below, and I agree it makes
things overall nicer (both the user-facing parts, and not having to see
the double-negative "!no_verify" in the code).

This "which will be run by default" is a little awkward. Maybe:

  By default, pre-merge and commit-msg hooks are run. When `--no-verify`
  is given, these are bypassed.
