Thanks. Feeling a bit studid now. I was actually thinking about using merge to implement stash apply in JGit. What we have is broken so I tried using merge to implement it and them compared to git merge --no-commit.. FAIL. The main difference is of course that I set the merge base to stash^1, which is obviously not what my question was about. -- robin -- 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
