Avoid filenames with multiple dots so that overly-picky tools do
not misinterpret their extension.

Previously, foo/bar.ext in the worktree would result in e.g.

        ./foo/bar.ext.BASE.1234.ext

This can be improved by having only a single .ext and using
underscore instead of dot so that the extension cannot be
misinterpreted.  The resulting path becomes:

        ./foo/bar_BASE_1234.ext

+               ext=
+       fi

Why use expr and not POSIX shell parameter substitution?

BASE=${MERGED%.*}
ext=.${MERGED##*.}

Or something like that...
