---exclude-per-directory=<gitignore>::
- When running the command with `-u` and `-m` options, the
- merge result may need to overwrite paths that are not
- tracked in the current branch. The command usually
- refuses to proceed with the merge to avoid losing such a
- path. However this safety valve sometimes gets in the
- way. For example, it often happens that the other
- branch added a file that used to be a generated file in
- your branch, and the safety valve triggers when you try
- to switch to that branch after you ran `make` but before
- running `make clean` to remove the generated file. This
- option tells the command to read per-directory exclude
- file (usually '.gitignore') and allows such an untracked
- but explicitly ignored file to be overwritten.

Instead of writing the results out to `$GIT_INDEX_FILE`,
