Unlike the doc string, what it says for `undo-auto-amalgamate' does not seem to describe the function at all. It seems to try to provide some info about amalgamating, but it does not tell what this function does (AFAICT). Please describe this function. But please also consider explaining how to use it - that's not clear to me. Presumably you can use it to group what would otherwise be separate undo pieces into a single undo chunk. How to do that is not clear (to me), and there is no distributed Lisp code that uses it, to refer to as an example. The only reference made to its use is to C-coded functions (which are the only distributed functions that use it).
