Thanks for a report (and thanks to John and Thomas for finding the
typo).
Nobody I know uses merge-tree; the last real change we did was back
from July 2010, and the only reason I was looking at it recently was
because I was planning to write a new merge strategy using it.
Mind if I ask what you are using it for?
Thank you everybody for investigating this and creating a patch. Can I
assume that this fix will reach somebody who can apply it to master?
With regard our use, we run an SCM hosting service http://codebasehq.com
and are in the process of deploying a merge-request feature. We use
git-merge-tree to determine whether a Git merge can be completed
automatically (without manual conflict resolution), and if so offer the
user a button to execute an actual merge. If there is a better way to do
this, I'd be happy to consider it.
