From: Remi Lespinet <remi.lespinet@ensimag.grenoble-inp.fr>

Add the am.threeWay configuration variable to use the -3 or --3way option of git am by default. When am.threeway is set and not desired for a specific git am command, the --no-3way option can be used to override it.

I tweaked Remi's patch so it is implemented on top of builtin/am.c. Hopefully
there will be no regressions this time ;)

The diff looks obviously correct to me (and yes, I also looked at the context... :-)).

Ciao, Dscho

Thanks for doing this.

I don't remember the details of the regression we had with the shell version, but that would probably deserve an additional test to enforce the "Hopefully there will be no regressions" part of your message.

Actually, technically, I think this patch by its own would reintroduce the regression ;)

The reason is that the bug was caused by the overall structure of the git-am.sh code, and not the patch itself[1].

This is fixed in another patch series[2] on top of this patch which also implements a test for "git am --3way".

Thanks, Paul

OK, perfect. I had missed that. Thanks again.
