[PATCH v2] Add note that conflict resolution is still performed

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

 



We should note that conflict resolution is still performed, even if
`--no-rerere-autoupdate` is specified, to make sure users do not get
confused by the setting and assume this disables rerere conflict
resultion altogether.

 --no-rerere-autoupdate::
 	Allow the rerere mechanism to update the index with the
 	result of auto-conflict resolution if possible.
+	The `--no-rerere-autoupdate` option does not prevent the conflict
+	resolution, but prevents the index from being updated. This gives the
+	user a chance for a final sanity check before using linkgit:git-add[1]
