Pls confirm.. You're being overly paranoid :) This netdev-2.6.git episode was the first time I ever tried to use the conflict merging. I didn't know git had improved to the point where "git commit" without any arguments would actually get things right. All the other merges used the vanilla git-pull-script with no modifications. Presumably it does the right thing :) Jeff
