Strictly speaking, you do not even have to edit the file.  If the conflict
does not overlap the part of the change you are interested in, a
hypothetical version of "add -p" that is oblivious to merge conflicts
(i.e. running "reset $path" before starting "add -p") could help you apply
the changes the picked commit makes relative to its parents to your
current state.
