62 * RETURN VALUES: All the merge_* functions below return a value as follows:

65 * < 0 Merge hit an unexpected and unrecoverable problem (e.g. disk
66 * full) and aborted merge part-way through.
70 * rename-detecting three-way merge, no recursion.
73 * - See RETURN VALUES above
74 * - opt->repo->index has the new index
75 * - new index NOT written to disk
76 * - The working tree is updated with results of the merge

84 * merge_recursive is like merge_trees() but with recursive ancestor
87 * NOTE: empirically, about a decade ago it was determined that with more
88 * than two merge bases, optimal behavior was found when the
89 * merge_bases were passed in the order of oldest commit to newest
90 * commit. Also, merge_bases will be consumed (emptied) so make a
91 * copy if you need it.
94 * - See RETURN VALUES above
95 * - *result is treated as scratch space for temporary recursive merges
96 * - opt->repo->index has the new index
97 * - new index NOT written to disk
98 * - The working tree is updated with results of the merge

108 * wrapping the trees into virtual commits, and calling merge_recursive().
109 * It also writes out the in-memory index to disk if the merge is successful.
112 * - See RETURN VALUES above
113 * - *result is treated as scratch space for temporary recursive merges
114 * - opt->repo->index has the new index
115 * - new index also written to $GIT_INDEX_FILE on disk
