Hi,

Sorry for the delay in responding; I've been busy with non-git things...

Junio already flagged this line in your v1; you either need to correct
it or respond to his comments about it.

I know we already have lots of globals, and I'm partially to blame
since I also copied this style from elsewhere into this file, but it'd
sure be nice to get rid of these needless globals rather than add
more.  But, certainly not a blocker....

Probably the best we can do now, but feels a little icky to me that
parse_merge_opt() works on all of struct merge_options rather than
having a dedicated struct for the particular options it can set.  Made
sense back in the merge-recursive.[ch] days, but it provides too many
extra unrelated and unnecessary fields now.

This isn't something you need to fix in this patch, though, just
something else I'll keep in mind when I get back to working on
removing merge-recursive.[ch].

stragety -> strategy

Style: '>filename', not '> filename'.

Same style issue with redirect.

Also, why is the leading spacing inconsistent with the surrounding lines?

I personally don't see the value in passing `-X ours` or `-X theirs`
to merges.  I've never really been a fan of either.  Granted, I
understand the value in making merge-tree support the same things that
existing merges support, so I'm fine with supporting it, but I'd
rather have a useful example for the testcase such as
-Xignore-space-change or something (or maybe use it as an additional
example?)  Not a blocker on its own, but just a personal preference.

Anyway, the general direction of the patch seems reasonable.  Not
everything I commented on needs to be fixed, as I noted, but there are
a few small things to fix up.
