After looking at what is done in t/t4200-rerere.sh, I think "git merge" (or anything that use --rerere-autoupdate, that is) is meant to exit with an error code after allowing rerere to add the result of replayed resolution to the index, so that the user can deal with any remaining paths that may be still in conflict. Are you sure that the autoresolved paths are not "git add"ed when you have rerere.autoupdate set by "git merge" in "git rebase -i/-p"? Or are you only talking about the error exit from "git merge" that would cause "git rebase -i" to stop and give control back to the end user? I suspect that the latter behaviour to stop "rebase" in the middle is in line with the spirit of --rerere-autoupdate, and it is not likely that we would want to change it. -- 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
