Re: [PATCH/RFC eb/double-convert-before-merge 0/6] merge -Xrenormalize

But for later, they tell a nice story.  The idea is that the
"merge.renormalize" is not really about the behavior of the "git
merge" command but about the merge-recursive driver; and so it
should be usable everywhere else that driver is used, too.

So in an ideal world, you would be able to, e.g.:

	git checkout -m -Xrenormalize otherbranch

or

	git revert -Xrenormalize otherpatch

or

	git pull --rebase -Xrenormalize

Of course, the plumbing is not all there yet; many commands that
use merge drivers cannot pass through arbitrary options through
yet.

Well, enough talking.  Here are the patches; what do you think?

Nicely summarized.
