This series builds on en/merge-cleanup. Technically, this could be broken into three separate topics with only one of them depending on en/merge-cleanup, but I have a subsequent series that depends on both en/merge-cleanup and the fixes here, so I'm submitting these four patches as a set. Elijah Newren (4): t6036: add testcase where virtual merge base contains nested conflicts merge-recursive: increase marker length with depth of recursion Improving diff3 conflict markers in the face of arbitrarily deeply nested conflicts merge-recursive: improve auto-merging messages with path collisions Simple attempt at wording improvement merge-recursive: Avoid showing conflicts with merge branch before HEAD Conflict markers are expected to be shown in a certain order ll-merge.c | 4 +- ll-merge.h | 1 + merge-recursive.c | 59 +++++++++-- t/t6036-recursive-corner-cases.sh | 159 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- 4 files changed, 208 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) -- 2.19.0.235.g7c386e1068
