[PATCH 13/18] git notes merge: Manual conflict resolution, part 1/2

From
Johan Herland <johan@herland.net>
Date
Sep 29, 2010, 00:23 UTC
Message-ID
<1285719811-10871-14-git-send-email-johan@herland.net>
In-Reply-To
<1285719811-10871-1-git-send-email-johan@herland.net>

Conflicts (that are to be resolved manually) are written into a special- purpose working tree, located at .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE. Within this directory, conflicting notes entries are stored (with conflict markers produced by ll_merge()) using the SHA1 of the annotated object. The .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory will only contain the _conflicting_ note entries. The non-conflicting note entries (aka. the partial merge result) are stored in 'local_tree', and the SHA1 of the resulting commit is written to 'result_sha1'. The return value from notes_merge() is -1.

The user is told to edit the files within the .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory in order to resolve the conflicts.

The patch also contains documentation and testcases for the correct setup of .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE.

The next part will recombine the partial notes merge result with the resolved conflicts in .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE to produce the complete merge result.
