This reverts commit 489947cee5, which
stopped treating merges into the 'master' branch as special when
preparing the default merge message. As the goal was not to have
any single branch designated as special, it solved it by leaving the
"into <branchname>" at the end of the title of the default merge
message for any and all branches. An obvious and easy alternative
to treat everybody equally could have been to remove it for every
branch, but that involves loss of information.
We'll introduce a new mechanism to let end-users specify merges into
which branches would omit the "into <branchname>" from the title of
the default merge message, and make the mechanism, when unconfigured,
treat the traditional 'master' special again, so all the changes to
the tests we made earlier will become unnecessary, as these tests
will be run without configuring the said new mechanism.

In the context of many projects renaming their primary branch names away
from `master`, Git wants to stop treating the `master` branch specially.
Let's start with `git fmt-merge-msg`.

Given that "git show" always shows some diff and does not walk the history
by default, it is natural to expect "git show --first-parent" to show the
difference between the given commit and its first parent. It also would
be natural, given that "--cc" is the default, "git show -m" to show
pairwise difference from each of the parents.
We however always defaulted to --cc and there was no way to turn it off.
