The commit-message solution would work perfectly fine. Just adding the blob with the whole glory of <<</>>> markers would be better than recording --ours or --theirs. Deleting might be a workaround that would work better in practice as somebody already mentioned, though. I agree that message is an essential part of the communication medium to coordinate this kind of workflow. It is not like the downstream is a dumb machinery that blindly grab and overlay the partial merge results that can only read from tree objects and not commit messages. -- 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
