In other words, I would prefer to see something like:

	$ git merge --index-only [-s <strategy>] <other_branch>

Would this allow merging changes into a branch other than HEAD? If so, I
agree, I'd prefer to see it in git-merge itself if possible.

I just said "I would prefer to see", so allowing or not allowing is up to
you ;-).  If course I would prefer to see it not touch HEAD so that your
working envirnoment (checked out branch and the working tree) are not
disrupted.  See my other message in the thread.
