I personally would like some interface to see what's going on behind the scenes because sometimes I've made a wrong resolution that gets carried around and I don't know of a way to clear them (other than manually hunting down the cached files). But this is not a deal-breaker, the feature works great. > I do not think of any downside with conflictstyle being diff3 (and > think of only upside). Same here. I recall reading about issues of a GSoC student resolving conflicts and setting up a mergetool. And he (or she?) mentioned the advice to configure diff3... I didn't even remember there was anything else. I wrote vimdiff3 precisely to edit diff3 output directly, and I've never looked back. -- Felipe Contreras
