Sergey Organov 17c13e60fd diff-merges: introduce log.diffMerges config variable
New log.diffMerges configuration variable sets the format that
--diff-merges=on will be using. The default is "separate".

t4013: add the following tests for log.diffMerges config:

* Test that wrong values are denied.

* Test that the value of log.diffMerges properly affects both
--diff-merges=on and -m.

t9902: fix completion tests for log.d* to match log.diffMerges.

Added documentation for log.diffMerges.

log.abbrevCommit::
If true, makes linkgit:git-log[1], linkgit:git-show[1], and
linkgit:git-whatchanged[1] assume `--abbrev-commit`. You may
override this option with `--no-abbrev-commit`.
log.date::
Set the default date-time mode for the 'log' command.
Setting a value for log.date is similar to using 'git log''s
`--date` option. See linkgit:git-log[1] for details.
log.decorate::
Print out the ref names of any commits that are shown by the log
command. If 'short' is specified, the ref name prefixes 'refs/heads/',
'refs/tags/' and 'refs/remotes/' will not be printed. If 'full' is
specified, the full ref name (including prefix) will be printed.
If 'auto' is specified, then if the output is going to a terminal,
the ref names are shown as if 'short' were given, otherwise no ref
names are shown. This is the same as the `--decorate` option
of the `git log`.
log.excludeDecoration::
Exclude the specified patterns from the log decorations. This is
similar to the `--decorate-refs-exclude` command-line option, but
the config option can be overridden by the `--decorate-refs`
option.
log.diffMerges::
Set default diff format to be used for merge commits. See
`--diff-merges` in linkgit:git-log[1] for details.
Defaults to `separate`.
log.follow::
If `true`, `git log` will act as if the `--follow` option was used when
a single <path> is given. This has the same limitations as `--follow`,
i.e. it cannot be used to follow multiple files and does not work well
on non-linear history.
log.graphColors::
A list of colors, separated by commas, that can be used to draw
history lines in `git log --graph`.
log.showRoot::
If true, the initial commit will be shown as a big creation event.
This is equivalent to a diff against an empty tree.
Tools like linkgit:git-log[1] or linkgit:git-whatchanged[1], which
normally hide the root commit will now show it. True by default.
log.showSignature::
If true, makes linkgit:git-log[1], linkgit:git-show[1], and
linkgit:git-whatchanged[1] assume `--show-signature`.
log.mailmap::
If true, makes linkgit:git-log[1], linkgit:git-show[1], and
linkgit:git-whatchanged[1] assume `--use-mailmap`, otherwise
assume `--no-use-mailmap`. True by default.
