You can also have a look at what is currently being applied:

$ git diff :1:gcc/tree-ssa-threadedge.c :3:gcc/tree-ssa-threadedge.c

By the way, does anybody know a better way to do that ? I happen to do
that quite a lot when fixing complex conflicts and the command is
quite inconvenient (I always end-up forgetting which numbers to use,
etc..).

Would this be a good use of the
   * Magic pathspecs like ":(icase)
that was recently released (v1.8.5 2Dec13) so that the merge stages can be named.

I'm not sure that the three 'merge stages' have well defined short names yet though.

[1] http://schacon.github.io/gitbook/5_advanced_branching_and_merging.html [2] https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-merge.html see True Merge 4.

Aside: the 'merge stages' terminology does overlap the common user discussion of commit staging e.g. $gmane/236127 (Officially start moving to the term 'staging area'). Any pathspec magic names should reflect the concept being indicated rather than the implementation - a thorny problem.


Hope that helps,
Antoine
