Hi,

Given two commits c1 and c2, is it possible to ask git if there are any commits in the repository that were created by either a sequence of commands like:

git checkout c1 git merge c2

or:

git checkout c2 git merge c1

with any required conflict resolution?

That is, I don't want to merge c1 and c2 myself, but I want to know if someone else has merged c1 and c2, performed any conflict resolution and committed the result.

Thanks, ER
