Short answer is "no", as the merge driver interface was originally designed for a backend that can do its job with only the contents of the three variants without any other information. Imagine the interface to things like "merge" from the RCS suite where it takes three variants as the input---for them, the same three-tuple of original, mine and theirs contents should merge to identical result no matter where in the working tree the conflicts happened. Having said that, I do not think it is unreasonable to feed more information to external merge driver, perhaps by adding a new environment variable GIT_MERGE_CONFLICTED_PATH exported when the driver is run, or something. -- 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
