[PATCH v3] mergetool: add automerge configuration

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



It doesn't make sense to display easily-solvable conflicts in the
different views of all mergetools.

Only the chunks that warrant conflict markers should be displayed.

In order to unobtrusively do this, add a new configuration:
mergetool.autoMerge.

See Seth House's blog post [1] for the idea, and the rationale.
