Happens with recursive and resolve. Happy to provide a minimal repro
case, but I think this is fairly obvious...

Steps to repro...

    mkdir repro
    cd repro/
    cp /etc/resolv.conf ./resolv.conf
    git init
    git add resolv.conf
    git commit -m 'a' resolv.conf
    cp resolv.conf resolv-1.conf
    git add resolv-1.conf
    git commit -m 'a1' resolv-1.conf
    echo blabla >> resolv-1.conf
    git commit -m 'a2' resolv-1.conf
    git-branch other HEAD^^
    git checkout other
    cp resolv.conf resolv-1.conf
    git add resolv-1.conf
    git commit -m 'b'
    git checkout master
    git merge other
    ...
   Auto-merged resolv-1.conf
   CONFLICT (add/add): Merge conflict in resolv-1.conf
   Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit the result.
