A squashable fix-up on top of your patch to match the wish in the part you
quoted from 9e8ecea (Add 'merge' mode to 'git reset', 2008-12-01) would
look like this, I think.

It does three things:

 - Updates the documentation to match the wish of original "reset --merge"
   better, namely, "An unmerged entry is a sign that the path didn't have
   any local modification and can be safely resetted to whatever the new
   HEAD records";

 - Updates read_index_unmerged(), which reads the index file into the
   cache while dropping any higher-stage entries down to stage #0, not to
   copy the object name recorded in the cache entry.  The code used to
   take the object name from the highest stage entry ("theirs" if you
   happened to have stage #3, or "ours" if they removed while you kept),
   which essentially meant that you are getting random results and didn't
   make sense.

   The _only_ reason we want to keep a previously unmerged entry in the
   index at stage #0 is so that we don't forget the fact that we have
   corresponding file in the work tree in order to be able to remove it
   when the tree we are resetting to does not have the path.  In order to
   differentiate such an entry from ordinary cache entry, the cache entry
   added by read_index_unmerged() records null sha1.

 - Updates merged_entry() and deleted_entry() so that they pay attention to
   cache entries with null sha1 (note that we _might_ want to use a new
   in-core ce->ce_flags instead of using the null-sha1 hack).  They are
   previously unmerged entries, and the files in the work tree that
   correspond to them are resetted away by oneway_merge() to the version
   from the tree we are resetting to.

Please take this with a grain of salt as I am under slight influence of
CH3-CH2-OH while writing it, and I usually almost never drink.
