This description and what the code actually does contradict with
each other, I wonder?

There are many options ('--merged', '--no-merged', '--contains',
'--no-contains', '--unset-upstream', '--edit-description') that
default to the current branch, which is a very natural thing within
the context of git.  Is defaulting to '**' is a good comparison to
them?  I dunno.
