Doh, I should have mentioned that this series drops the number of failures in the testsuite when run under GIT_TEST_MERGE_ALGORITHM=ort from 1453 to 1448. (Due to the final patch adding handling for modify/delete conflicts.) It feels almost like an oversight since the number only dropped by 5 and the focus was on setting up the next three series which will drop it much more. The next three, which I'm planning to submit soon, will collectively drop the number of failures by 1388 down to just 60. Anyway, thanks for looking it over!
