Don't merge!!!! But it did. :-(

Hello, Emacs.

Back in December, I changed the CC Mode version number in Emacs-25,
labelling the commit message with "Don't merge to trunk."  However, that
change _was_ merged to trunk.

Looking at .../admin/gitmerge.el, it is apparent that the injunction not
to merge to trunk is recognised by a script, not a human, and the script
doesn't recognise "don't", only "do not" written in full.

To prevent this happening to anybody else, or to me again, I propose to
enhance the pertinent regexp also to recognise "don't".  Any objections?
