OK, this early return (and others in this patch) are only for
negative (i.e. error) cases, and "attempted a merge, resulted in
conflicts" cases are handled as before.
Which is good.
I wonder if o->branch[12] need to be restored, though. The only
sensible thing the caller can do is to punt, but would it expect to
be able to do some error reporting based on these fields, e.g.
printf("merge of %s and %s failed", o->branch1, o->branch2) or
something? In addition to that kind of "state restoration", we may
need to watch out for resource leaks, but I think there is none at
least these three early returns.
Thanks.
