> Is there a way to track merge like that?

The command line you quoted shows the relevant information for
people who want to know what happened in that merge.

Namely:

 * it always shows the header and the message

 * it shows the changes that are not trivial (i.e. merge parents
   have overlapping different versions and manual resolution
   resulted in something different from either parents).

It is not a replacement for format-patch, but I think the commit
mailing list is not for machines to receive and apply the
received patches, but for humans to inspect, so it would be more
suitable than a naive alternative of showing diff from all
parents concatenated together.
