(1) Not all conflicting merge cases can write a sensible "conflicted intermediate auto-merge result". Look for cases where we punt in git-merge-one-file. (2) Modulo issue (1), it can be re-computed if and when needed, so this is akin to "storing rename information in the commit by detecting renames while merging". (3) Depending on the direction you pull, you would have logically the same "conflicted auto-merge result" that has <<< === >>> delimited hunks in reverse. Which one should you record? And annotate would not be helped much -- if it is needed you could recompute it at that point. Annotate needs to look at the diff from each parent _anyway_ to assign blames. By the way, I brought up the issue (3) because it relates to how my latest toy "git rerere" works ;-). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.htmlReceived on Mon Jan 30 07:15:47 2006
