The "funny filename" comment was from
b539c5e8fbd3 (git-merge-one:
new merge world order., 2005-12-07) where the removed code just
before that new comment ended with:
merge "$4" "$orig" "$src2"
(yes, we used to use "merge" program from the RCS suite). The
comment refers to one of the bad side effect the old code used to
have and warns against such a practice, i.e. it was talking about
the code that no longer existed.
