My understanding is that Darrin wants to do what Linus did when
he merged gitk into git.git.

Personally I think that is a specialized application and
something like the git-merge-projects script I posted as a
follow-up would be more appropriate than adding it to the
current merge discussion.

Well, it's an easy addition to read-tree; just need a merge function which 
takes two entries and adds the non-NULL one in stage 0, or adds both if 
they both exist. git-merge-script probably shouldn't be the entry point to 
it, of course, but that part isn't my area anyway.
