In addition to the branch names, populate the log message with
one-line description from actual commits that are being merged.
This was prompted by Len's 12-way octopus. You need to have
'merge.summary' in the configuration file to enable it:
$ git repo-config merge.summary yes

The refspecs specified in the .git/remotes/<remote> on the "Pull: "
lines are for fetching multiple heads in one go, but most of the time
making an Octopus out of them is not what is wanted. Make git-fetch
leave the marker in .git/FETCH_HEAD file so that later stages can
tell which heads are for merging and which are not.
Tom Prince made me realize how stupid the original behaviour was.

Including the current branch in the list of heads being merged
was not a good idea, so drop it. And shorten the message by
grouping branches and tags together to form a single line.
