What if: -o checkpoint=merge,checkpoint=enable

Can you please explain the rule of merge/disable/enable combination and their 
result? e.g.
checkpoint=merge,checkpoint=enable
checkpoint=enable,checkpoint=merge
checkpoint=merge,checkpoint=disable
checkpoint=disable,checkpoint=merge

If the rule/result is clear, it should be documented.

Thanks,
