This is similar to +what three-way read-tree -m does, but instead of storing the +results in the index, the command outputs the entries to the +standard output. + +This is meant to be used by higher level scripts to compute +merge results outside index, and stuff the results back into the +index. For this reason, the output from the command omits +entries that match <branch1> tree. + +Author +------ +Written by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> + +Documentation +-------------- +Documentation by Junio C Hamano and the git-list <git@vger.kernel.org>. + +GIT +--- +Part of the linkgit:git[1] suite |
