It doesn't say something different (I just checked). But it doesn't say
how the entered revisions are used either.

If you look at the label below the edit box, it says:

Use the log dialog to select the revisions you want to merge, or enter
the revisions to merge, separated by commas. A revision range can be
specified by a dash.

Example: 4-7,9,11,15-HEAD

If you look at the example, it should be clear that all revisions are
used, otherwise (in the example) revision 9 and 11 wouldn't be merged.

We had this discussion before, and the majority of our users wanted the
merge to work like it works now.
