I hit this at $dayjob recently. A developer had got themselves into a confused state when needing to resolve a merge conflict. They knew about git rebase --continue (and git am and git cherry-pick) but they were unsure how to "continue" a merge (it didn't help that the advice saying to use 'git commit' was scrolling off the top of the terminal). I know that using 'git commit' has been the standard way to complete a merge but given other commands have a --continue should merge have it as well?
