I suppose you want Git to merge without conflict in the end, though, based on your script.

Maybe you meant to move the renamed file to the same folder where it exists in the merge target. I do not get a conflict when I do that. git reset --hard b60070f4d0879e277f44d174a163bbb292325fea git mv src/TrueCrypt.sln CipherShed.sln git commit -m 'renamed to be congruent with a0c84ff' git merge a0c84ff28f356bcb8b872a9c65a2e9bff97b3f68 No conflict (on that file, anyway).
