Re: [PATCH (1b)] merge-recursive.c: Add more generic merge_recursive_generic()

Hi,

Junio C Hamano wrote:

The scripted version of revert/cherry-pick used git-merge-recursive
because that is the Porcelain API available, and the current C-rewrite
uses it as well, but if we are rewriting it to call merge-recursive
machinery directly, it should be making a single merge request to
merge_trees(), not "recursive" one.

This is an interesting point.
So perhaps we don't need stuff like my regarding merge_recursive_generic(),
at least not for revert/cherry-pick.

Regards,
  Stephan
