From: Stephan Beyer <s-beyer@gmx.net>
This option is nearly like "--merge" except that it is a little bit safer as it seems that it tries to keep changes in the index. On the contrary "--merge", only keep changes in the work tree.
This will be shown in the next patch that adds some test cases for "--merge-dirty".
In fact with "--merge-dirty", changes that are both in the work tree and the index are kept in the work tree after the reset (but discarded in the index). As with "--merge", changes that are in both the work tree and the index are discarded after the reset.
So "--merge-dirty" is probably a very bad name for this new option. Perhaps "--merge-safe" is better?
The code comes from the sequencer GSoC project:
