ACK to that. I think people using 'git reset --merge' know what
they're doing, and should be able to clobber their changes (viz. `git
reset --hard`), while 'git merge --abort' should do more handholding
and make sure you don't lose any data. (If I had more time I'd
implement that 'core.nodataloss' flag...)
