Subject: [PATCH 0/4] Loosening "two project merge" safety
Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2016 12:24:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160421192500.23563-1-gitster@pobox.com> (raw)

Yaroslav Halchenko gave a vague "forcing 'git merge' users to always
give --allow-unrelated-histories option when they create crap/insane
merges are not nice", which I couldn't guess the validity due to
lack of concrete use case.  Just in case it is substantiated, here
is a series to selectively and safely loosen the safety for specific
use cases and users.

Junio C Hamano (4):
  t3033: avoid 'ambiguous refs' warning
  pull: pass --allow-unrelated-histories to "git merge"
  merge: GIT_MERGE_ALLOW_UNRELATED_HISTORIES environment
  merge: introduce merge.allowUnrelatedhistories configuration option
