No, I think there's something else going on. Try this:
git init repo &&
cd repo &&
echo base >one &&
echo base >two &&
git add . &&
git commit -m base &&
echo stash >one &&
echo stash >two &&
git stash &&
echo "==> No conflicts, nothing staged"
git stash apply &&
git reset --hard &&
echo changes >two &&
git commit -am changes &&
echo "==> Conflict stages non-conflicting file 'one'"
! git stash apply &&
git status
It seems to be a side effect of merge-recursive to stage the results,
and in the no-conflict path we explicitly reset the index. For the
conflicting case, it's trickier, because we would want to retain the
unmerged entries.
So I agree it's kind of weird, but the conflicting case is inherently
going to touch the index, and you'd generally have to `git add` to mark
the resolutions (but if you really want to just touch the working tree,
you'd need to `git reset`).
