I lack energy to come up with a succinct description right now, so here is
an undistilled version of what I would want to see the reader of the above
paragraph understand:
A set of entries for a path at higher stages (i.e. the ones that
represent a merge conflict at the path) used to be removed from the
index and replaced with the result of the resolution when the conflict
is resolved (e.g. with "git add path"). This extension saves these
higher stage entries away so that "checkout -m" and other operations
can recreate the conflicted state, in case you botched a conflict
resolution and want to redo it from scratch.
The description of the data contents looked fine, except that "A number of
entries" felt a bit unclear (it would make the reader wonder if we record
how many we have at that location as an integer, which is not the case).
