Hi,
I did "git reset --soft HEAD~1" where HEAD is a merged commit and
committed again (nothing changed).  The new commit was not recorded as
a merged commit. Is it intentional?

Yes, you undid the merge.  :-(

Yes, you have chosen to go back to 1st parent. The information about other
parents got lost.

If you want to correct commit, even if it is merge commit, use
  git commit --amend
instead.

Or you can muck with MERGE_HEAD instead.
