+# criss-cross + d/f conflict via add/add:
+# Commit A: Neither file 'a' nor directory 'a/' exists.
+# Commit B: Introduce 'a'
+# Commit C: Introduce 'a/file'
+# Commit D1: Merge B & C, keeping 'a' and deleting 'a/'
+# Commit E1: Merge B & C, deleting 'a' but keeping 'a/file'
+#
+# B D1 or D2
+# o---o
+# / \ / \
+# A o X ? F
+# \ / \ /
+# o---o
+# C E1 or E2 or E3
+#
+# I'll describe D2, E2, & E3 (which are alternatives for D1 & E1) more below...
+#
+# Merging D1 & E1 requires we first create a virtual merge base X from
+# merging A & B in memory. There are several possibilities for the merge-base:
+# 1: Keep both 'a' and 'a/file' (assuming crazy filesystem allowing a tree
+# with a directory and file at same path): results in merge of D1 & E1
+# being clean with both files deleted. Bad (no conflict detected).
+# 2: Keep 'a' but not 'a/file': Merging D1 & E1 is clean and matches E1. Bad.
+# 3: Keep 'a/file' but not 'a': Merging D1 & E1 is clean and matches D1. Bad.
+# 4: Keep neither file: Merging D1 & E1 reports the D/F add/add conflict.
+#
+# So 4 sounds good for this case, but if we were to merge D1 & E3, where E3
+# is defined as:
+# Commit E3: Merge B & C, keeping modified a, and deleting a/
+# then we'd get an add/add conflict for 'a', which seems suboptimal. A little
+# creativity leads us to an alternate choice:
+# 5: Keep 'a' as 'a~$UNIQUE' and a/file; results:
+# Merge D1 & E1: rename/delete conflict for 'a'; a/file silently deleted
+# Merge D1 & E3 is clean, as expected.
+#
+# So choice 5 at least provides some kind of conflict for the original case,
+# and can merge cleanly as expected with D1 and E3. It also made things just
+# slightly funny for merging D1 and e$, where E4 is defined as:
+# Commit E4: Merge B & C, modifying 'a' and renaming to 'a2', and deleting 'a/'
+# in this case, we'll get a rename/rename(1to2) conflict because a~$UNIQUE
+# gets renamed to 'a' in D1 and to 'a2' in E4. But that's better than having
+# two files (both 'a' and 'a2') sitting around without the user being notified
+# that we could detect they were related and need to be merged. Also, choice
+# 5 makes the handling of 'a/file' seem suboptimal. What if we were to merge
+# D2 and E4, where D2 is:
+# Commit D2: Merge B & C, renaming 'a'->'a2', keeping 'a/file'
+# This would result in a clean merge with 'a2' having three-way merged
+# contents (good), and deleting 'a/' (bad) -- it doesn't detect the
+# conflict in how the different sides treated a/file differently.
+# Continuing down the creative route:
+# 6: Keep 'a' as 'a~$UNIQUE1' and keep 'a/' as 'a~$UNIQUE2/'; results:
+# Merge D1 & E1: rename/delete conflict for 'a' and each path under 'a/'.
+# Merge D1 & E3: clean, as expected.
+# Merge D1 & E4: rename/rename(1to2) conflict on 'a' vs 'a2'.
+# Merge D2 & E4: clean for 'a2', rename/delete for a/file
+#
+# Choice 6 could cause rename detection to take longer (providing more targets
+# that need to be searched). Also, the conflict message for each path under
+# 'a/' might be annoying unless we can detect it at the directory level, print
+# it once, and then suppress it for individual filepaths underneath.
+#
+#
+# As of time of writing, git uses choice 5. Directory rename detection and
+# rename detection performance improvements might make choice 6 a desirable
+# improvement. But we can at least document where we fall short for now...
+#
+#
+# Historically, this testcase also used:
+# Commit E2: Merge B & C, deleting 'a' but keeping slightly modified 'a/file'
+# The merge of D1 & E2 is very similar to D1 & E1 -- it has similar issues for
+# path 'a', but should always result in a modify/delete conflict for path
+# 'a/file'. These tests ran the two merges
+# D1 & E1
+# D1 & E2
+# in both directions, to check for directional issues with D/F conflict
+# handling. Later we added
+# D1 & E3
+# D1 & E4
+# D2 & E4
+# for good measure, though we only ran those one way because we had pretty
+# good confidence in merge-recursive's directional handling of D/F issues.
+#
+# Just to summarize all the intermediate merge commits:
+# Commit D1: Merge B & C, keeping a and deleting a/
+# Commit D2: Merge B & C, renaming a->a2, keeping a/file
+# Commit E1: Merge B & C, deleting a but keeping a/file
+# Commit E2: Merge B & C, deleting a but keeping slightly modified a/file
+# Commit E3: Merge B & C, keeping modified a, and deleting a/
+# Commit E4: Merge B & C, modifying 'a' and renaming to 'a2', and deleting 'a/'

+# Commit D: merge B&C, resolving conflict by keeping contents in newname
+# Commit E: merge B&C, resolving conflict similar to D but adding another line
+#
+# There is a conflict merging B & C, but one of filename not of file
+# content. Whoever created D and E chose specific resolutions for that
+# conflict resolution. Now, since: (1) there is no content conflict
+# merging B & C, (2) D does not modify that merged content further, and (3)
+# both D & E resolve the name conflict in the same way, the modification to
+# newname in E should not cause any conflicts when it is merged with D.
+# (Note that this can be accomplished by having the virtual merge base have
+# the merged contents of b and c stored in a file named a, which seems like
+# the most logical choice anyway.)
+#
+# Comment from Junio: I do not necessarily agree with the choice "a", but
+# it feels sound to say "B and C do not agree what the final pathname
+# should be, but we know this content was derived from the common A:a so we
+# use one path whose name is arbitrary in the virtual merge base X between
+# D and E" and then further let the rename detection to notice that that
+# arbitrary path gets renamed between X-D to "newname" and X-E also to
+# "newname" to resolve it as both sides renaming it to the same new
+# name. It is akin to what we do at the content level, i.e. "B and C do not
+# agree what the final contents should be, so we leave the conflict marker
+# but that may cancel out at the final merge stage".
