Hi custodians,
I look at http://www.denx.de/wiki/UBoot/CustodianGitTrees and
I need made merge with u-boot mainline.

I hit againts conflict.

CONFLICT (content): Merge conflict in include/linux/stat.h
Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit the result.

I had problem with stat.h file. I resolve merge conflict (with vi) and then
I tryied
start pull second time but without success.
On website is written "Before you request a pull, make sure there are no
merge conflicts with the mainline". OK
I change this file in microblaze repository and automatic merge work fine.
But I have to add change stat.h to microblaze repository.
Does command exist for finding merge conflict?

And second thing after automatic merge is added all patches from u-boot
mainline. Is it right way? Do you require add only one line with merge
www.denx.de/git/u-boot.git or the all patches? (What is the best command?)

Best regards
