I implemented it as an option right now (-V), as suggested by Archie. See
updated script here: http://www.develer.com/~rasky/svnmerge.py
I'm also +1 on making it the default because the current log message is really
too concise to be useful; we can have a -Q to make it more quiet.

Thanks also everybody for the other feedbacks on the other issues. I had too
little time today to address them, I'll do it ASAP.
