Hi,

correcting a whole bunch of merge failures for every commit 
in your current tree.

So far the only was I can see to do this is a:

git-diff master..HEAD > my.patch

And then re-applying your patch in stages, manually doing the commits.

Am I missing something?

git merge --squash ?

Hmm, that would do although it only works on whole trees, you can't
specify a range of commits. So you would have to cherrypick groups of
changes onto other branches and then merge them together with a couple
of --squashes

However thanks for pointing that one out :-)
