merge-ort: write $GIT_DIR/AUTO_MERGE whenever we hit a conflict
There are a variety of questions users might ask while resolving
conflicts:
* What changes have been made since the previous (first) parent?
* What changes are staged?
* What is still unstaged? (or what is still conflicted?)
* What changes did I make to resolve conflicts so far?
The first three of these have simple answers:
* git diff HEAD
* git diff --cached
* git diff
There was no way to answer the final question previously. Adding one
is trivial in merge-ort, since it works by creating a tree representing
what should be written to the working copy complete with conflict
markers. Simply write that tree to .git/AUTO_MERGE, allowing users to
answer the fourth question with
* git diff AUTO_MERGE
I avoided using a name like "MERGE_AUTO", because that would be
merge-specific (much like MERGE_HEAD, REBASE_HEAD, REVERT_HEAD,
CHERRY_PICK_HEAD) and I wanted a name that didn't change depending on
which type of operation the merge was part of.
Ensure that paths which clean out other temporary operation-specific
files (e.g. CHERRY_PICK_HEAD, MERGE_MSG, rebase-merge/ state directory)
also clean out this AUTO_MERGE file.
