Hello,
You merge by hand and resolve if they have conflicts, just like
what you already do in two head merge case.
I see. Does that mean that 'git-ls-files --unmerged' will report upto 9
stages per file?
Octopus is only about how you record the results. Instead of
making 7 consecutive "merge from A" "merge from B" to record two
head merges, you just say "I merged these 8 heads" in a single
commit.
I got that part. :-)
