Subject: Avoiding uninteresting merges in Cairo
Date: Thu, 14 Dec 2006 21:06:29 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061215020629.GK26202@spearce.org> (raw)

I was just talking with jwatt today in #git and he pointed me at
the following email from

 http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cairo/2006-April/006648.html

after he had a merge gone wrong in his working directory and was
asking for help.

Cario has seriously been using `reset --hard HEAD^` as part of its
workflow since April?  Why haven't you pushed for a rebase merge
strategy to be tried before a trivial index merge as an option in
git-merge (e.g. pull.twohead=rebase recursive)?
