Yeah, I think defaulting to merge=union there is questionable. In an
ideal world, the GitHub for Windows folks would ship a specialized merge
helper for handling VS project files. It can be open-source and
distributed separately for people who don't use GitHub, but they can
integrate it seamlessly into the GitHub client. So everybody wins.

I see you've already written to GitHub support; thanks. I'll make sure
your issue gets routed to the right people, and I'll see if I can
convince them to write the specialized tool. :)
