Package: git-core
Version: 1:1.7.0-1
Severity: normal
I can't live without conflictstyle=diff3m and I'm very happy it exists.
But it has a little problem: it uses "|||||||\n" as a separator for the
ancestor version of the text, whereas diff3 uses "||||||| <ancestorname>\n".
The difference is harmless for a human (tho the <ancestorname> can sometimes
be useful, assuming it's meaningful), but it makes some tools fail to
recognize the conflict markers properly.
So please add a " BASE" or " ANCESTOR" after the "|||||||".

PS: I intended to report this bug directly to the Git bug-tracker, but I was
simply unable to find it. I know I'm sometimes dense, but I did make an
honest effort to look for it.
