That is certainly cute, but I do not like it for two reasons: - This advertizes "theirs" as available when you ask "git merge -s whoa", and then the user is told "don't use this stupid, go away". That is not exactly a good diplomacy to earn friends. - The message gives a rather long hexdecimal string in its suggestion to run "git reset --hard". This is not exactly your fault, though. The original refname the user gave to "git-merge" is not available to your strategy.
This does not address the first point at all, but attempts to solve the second issue. Strategies now get the remote in the symbolic form originally used on the command line. All strategies know that they need to expect that the refs can be given with arbitrary SHA-1 expressions, so this change should be safe. builtin-merge.c | 20 +++++++++++++++----- 1 files changed, 15 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)
