I need a custom merge strategy (not driver) for a tool I’m writing, and I’m wondering: 1. Is there documentation for the API anywhere? 2. Does git-merge actually do any magic, or could I just run the script that implements my merge directly? In other words, is there really any difference between a merge strategy and a script that creates the tree I want and then commits it using git-commit-tree with multiple -p arguments. — Daniel M.
