Thanks, thanks, thanks.

One last question. If I don't want to compile Git myself, how long may the pu branch take approx. to get into a next release?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

I had this in my outbox but then forgot to send it out.

Subject: ll-merge: pass the original path to external drivers

The interface to custom low-level merge driver was modeled to be capable of driving programs like "merge" (from the RCS suite) that can produce result solely by looking at three files that hold contents of common ancestor, ours and theirs.  The information we feed to the external drivers via the command line placeholders %O, %A, and %B were designed to be purely about contents by giving names of the temporary files that hold these variants without exposing the original pathname.  No matter where the result goes, merging the same three variants should produce the same result, contents is the king, that is the Git way.

The external driver interface, however, is meant to help people to step outside the Git worldview, and sometimes people want to know the final path that the resulting merged contents would be stored in.  Expose this to the external drivers via a new placeholder %P.
