  how exactly did you get the morge conflicts? These should never happen
- I don't think we document them either? Pre-0.2 TopGit with dash as
/bin/sh had a bug that caused the conflicts to still happen, but that
should've been fixed (check if your .git/info/attributes does not
contain '-e' at the line beginnings ;-).
