Suppress commits that are missing from the second specified range
(or the "right range" when using the `<rev1>...<rev2>` format).
+--diff-merges=<format>::
+ Instead of ignoring merge commits, generate diffs for them using the
+ corresponding `--diff-merges=<format>` option of linkgit:git-log[1],
+ and include them in the comparison.
++
+Note: In the common case, the `remerge` mode will be the most natural one
+to use, as it shows only the diff on top of what Git's merge machinery would
+have produced. In other words, if a merge commit is the result of a
+non-conflicting `git merge`, the `remerge` mode will represent it with an empty
+diff.

+ Convenience option, equivalent to `--diff-merges=remerge`.

--[no-]notes[=<ref>]::
This flag is passed to the `git log` program
(see linkgit:git-log[1]) that generates the patches.
