There's no way to do a merge commit-by commit. The recommendation is to
do a rebase, since it essentially does a commit-by-commit merge under the
hood (due to using the merge machinery). The title of the FAQ entry at
[0] doesn't perfectly describe your case, but it does sort of explain it
and it explains how the merge and rebase machinery works.
