Comment (by mmezzarobba):

 Replying to [comment:108 SimonKing]:
 > Usually, the mergetool I am using (meld) just shows me the differences
 and lets me decide which to take. However, this time, meld gave me the
 impression that the two versions differ by 100%. It did not even show a
 single line which is common to both versions.

 As far as I understand, that's because both versions were added
 independently to their respective branches. So each of the two diffs from
 the common ancestor contains a single hunk with the whole contents of the
 file, and `merge` doesn't find any common block to remove.

 It depends a little bit on your setup, but something like

 {{{
 git fetch trac u/mmezzarobba/ticket/15303
 git checkout u/mmezzarobba/ticket/15303 -m mybranch
 }}}

 (or `git merge --ff-only u/mmezzarobba/ticket/15303` if you are already on
 your ticket branch and want to add the merge commit to that branch) should
 work.

 Please check that what I did is really what you had in mind!
