I have subtree merged a 3rd party library (ezc-reflection) into my
repository (pflow). The prefix I used was lib/ezc/trunk/Reflection. Now
there have been changes to ezc-reflection but merging them into my
repository fails. The merge is attempted in example/ rather than
lib/ezc/trunk/Reflection.
I originally set this up with:
git remote add -f ezc-reflection /path/to/ezc-reflection
git merge -s ours --no-commit ezc-reflection/master
git read-tree --prefix=lib/ezc/trunk/Reflection -u ezc-reflection/master
Reproduce my problem by executing the following:
git clone git://github.com/naderman/pflow.git
cd pflow
git reset --hard f3e001e3
git fetch git://github.com/naderman/ezc-reflection.git master
git merge -s subtree FETCH_HEAD
As you see this results in:
CONFLICT (delete/modify): example/src/doc_comment_parser.php deleted in
HEAD and modified in FETCH_HEAD. Version FETCH_HEAD of
example/src/doc_comment_parser.php left in tree.
Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit the result.
As long as I don't make any changes to lib/ezc/trunk/Reflection that I
want to merge I can work around this by simply repeating my original
process like this:
git clone git://github.com/naderman/pflow.git
cd pflow
git reset --hard f3e001e3
git fetch git://github.com/naderman/ezc-reflection.git master
git merge -s ours --no-commit FETCH_HEAD
git rm -r lib/ezc/trunk/Reflection/
git read-tree --prefix=lib/ezc/trunk/Reflection/ -u FETCH_HEAD
Why does this problem occur and how can I get the merge to work properly?
I'm not sure, but maybe you can try git-subtree?
It makes this stuff easier for mere mortals.

You might need to start redo your repo, but several people have
had good success with git-subtree.
I actually tried that and I get the exact same problem. From what I
understand git-subtree really doesn't do anything different than what I
do anyway.
