I was just doing an annoying merge (I'd reorganized code while other
people made changes to it), and I kept having the problem that it was hard
to figure out what each side had done. Is there some way to ask git for
the diffs between the common ancestor (which is unique in my case, so it's
actually useful) and each of the sides of the merge?
Have you tried "git checkout --conflict=diff3 $that_conflicted_path"?
