Well, if rerere.autoupdate is disabled, any files resolved by rerere should not be touched by 'git mergetool' (this was the original request that lead to the change), but they would not be added to the index, so we would not be ready for commit. I take that part of my request back. I guess it would be ok (or even necessary) if, after resolving all the conflicts reported by 'git mergetool', the user would still have to explicitly add any files resolved by rerere and thus ignored by 'git mergetool'. So I guess what I'm saying here, is that I think only the problem with 'delete/modify' conflicts should be fixed regarding issue (1). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
