Trying really trivial in-index merge...
fatal: Merge requires file-level merging

Failed to execute 'merge'. merge(1) is used as the file-level merge tool. Is 'merge' in your path?
No merge strategy handled the merge.

What does "which merge" tell you? If it turns up blank, you know the problem. The merge program is usually found in the rcs package.
