Hmm, interestingly, if you do _not_ stage the changes (i.e., drop the final "git add" there), you get: $ git stash pop error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge: test Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can merge. Aborting which makes sense. Writing conflict markers into the file would leave you in a situation where it is hard to recover the "bbbbb" content. But we seem to skip that safety valve when the content has been staged, which seems questionable to me (technically we are slightly better off than the protected case because "bbbbb" was written to a git blob object, so you can recover it. But it may be difficult to find the correct blob in the object database). -Peff -- 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
