From a249a9b5a26e841a28f6e993a560d749303cf91c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Sixt Date: Sat, 3 Mar 2007 20:38:00 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Tell multi-parent diff about core.symlinks. When core.symlinks is false, and a merge of symbolic links had conflicts, the merge result is left as a file in the working directory. A decision must be made whether the file is treated as a regular file or as a symbolic link. This patch treats the file as a symbolic link only if all merge parents were also symbolic links.
