Not really, the current implementation bails out and tells you not to
use an octopus:

  Trying simple merge with t/man-unquote-apos-3
  Simple merge did not work, trying automatic merge.
  Auto-merging Documentation/Makefile
  ERROR: content conflict in Documentation/Makefile
  Auto-merging Makefile
  fatal: merge program failed
  Automated merge did not work.
  Should not be doing an Octopus.
  Merge with strategy octopus failed.
