Commit message not helpful after merge squash with conflicts

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

after a "git merge --squash" with a conflict the commit message is not
helpful as it only includes the conflicted files information, however, I
expect to see the content of SQUASH_MSG which contains the summary of
the merged commits. SQUASH_MSG seems to be just ignored.

I think git should either read SQUASH_MSG and append COMMIT_MSG or add
the conflict information into SQUASH_MSG and create no COMMIT_MSG.
