You are putting words into (my?) mouth. Nobody ever said that merge, the
operation, is just a commit, AFAIR. If you indeed meant me, that's what
I said:

     After true merge operation is finished, the only result of it is
     single commit appended to your current branch. Git /is/ that
     simple. All the possible complexity is in the stage of content
     preparation for this commit.

I fail to see how this could be taken as saying that merge is just a
commit. What I wanted to tell /you/, not /Alan/, is that there is no any
hidden meta-information or other mysteries involved.
