Generally, unless the conflicts are *really* bad, just ignore them,
and let me sort them out. It's nice if you mention the fact that there
will be conflicts, and some people also send me a pre-merged tree that
has the conflicts fixed up, but in general it's much better if the
different trees ignore each other - that way we don't have random
merges that mean that I cannot pull one tree without pulling another.
If the conflicts are just insanely bad, I'll ask you to resolve them
for me when I hit them, but in general that's a sign that something
nasty is going on and people are developing in the wrong trees or just
stepping on each others toes too much.
