I would find this slightly easier to understand if it was written like this (and separated into its own paragraph): Add the Signed-off-by: trailer by passing the `--signoff` option to `git commit` instead of adding the trailer manually (and only when the `recursive` merge strategy is in effect). > This means that if there are conflicts when merging with a strategy > other than 'recursive' the Signed-off-by: trailer will be added if the > user commits the resolution themselves without passing '--signoff' to > 'git commit'. Nice! > It also simplifies the in-process commit that is about to be added to > the sequencer. Also nice! Thanks, Dscho
