Dear diary, on Tue, Apr 19, 2005 at 12:59:52AM CEST, I got a letter
where Russell King <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> told me that...

Well, you can script that
cd ,,merge && echo 'Merge with Linus' | git ci && cd ..
too. ;-)
But it seems like a good idea to just proceed with commit in case of no
conflicts (and possibly have a switch which will tell git merge to just
merge, not commit).

And in the case of conflicts...?
