The following issue was found by scan.coverity.com (ID: 1049510), and claimed to be likely a copy-paste mistake. Introduced in 331a1838b (2010-07-02, Try normalizing files to avoid delete/modify conflicts when merging), which is quite a long time ago, so I'm rather unsure if it's of any impact or just went unnoticed. The line after the changed line has a comparison of 'o.len' to 'a.len', so we should assume the lengths may be different. I'd be happy to have a test for this bug(?) attached to t6031-merge-recursive.sh, but I did not manage to come up with a test in a reasonable amount of time.
