Hello,
I’ve just learnt about rerere and it’s going to make my life so much easier, I have a question though.
I enabled rerere very lately and I wanted to know if there was a way to feed rerere with old merge conflict resolutions (and if not, would it be considered a good feature request)? I’d like to do a rebase of my work because I unintentionally merged a branch I didn’t want and the merge is a bit far in the git history and I don’t want to re-resolve merge conflicts I had after that.
Thanks for your help!

Have a look at contrib/rerere-train.sh.

(Which I learned from http://git-blame.blogspot.de/2012/04/rebuilding-git-integration-environment.html)

Thank you very much for the advice (and sorry for not searching enough).
