[PATCH] Add default merge options for all branches

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Introduce a new configuration variable, merge.mergeoptions.
The semantics of this new variable are the same as the branch specific
branch.<branch>.mergeoptions.  However, if a branch specific setting is
found, this option will not override it.

The need for this arises from the fact that there is currently not an
easy way to set merge options for all branches. Instead of having to
specify merge options for each individual branch there should be a way
to set defaults for all branches and then override a specific branch's
options.

The approach taken is to make note of whether a branch specific
mergeoptions key has been seen and only apply the global value if it
hasn't. An alternative method would be to keep the
branch.<branch>.mergeoptions semantics, but assign a special value for
<branch> to be the global default.
