Hey, I have question about advanced merging.
Suppose I have a huge merge with conflicts all over the place. There is no
way to avoid them, so I start working from the top. At some point, however,
I make a mistake and lose the merge information for one file (for example by
checking out the file from HEAD).
In that case I would like to get the conflict markers back, and do that file
over again, but I don't want to throw away the rest of the index state.
Currently the only way I can see to do this is by checking out several file
versions under different names and then using git merge-file on them.
Is there a better way to achieve this?
If the different versions are still in the index you could use:
$ git checkout --merge $file
In my case the files were added to the index already, so I guess it
doesn't work then?
