I agree with it in principle, but I am not going to write one any time soon. I think the most difficult case is when the submitter based a fix on 'next' or 'pu' and I fixed it up so that it applies to 'maint'. It is not trivial to express conflict resolution in such a case, as what your tool has to do its work are (1) the original patch that may apply to "somewhere" (the tool could ask "am -3" to help it out), and (2) the patch that is queued somewhere in 'pu'. -- 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
