2010-01-17Document that merge strategies can now take their own optionsLibravatar Junio C Hamano1-1/+28

2009-11-15Documentation: clarify 'ours' merge strategyLibravatar Thomas Rast1-2/+3
Make it clear in the docs that the merge takes the tree of HEAD and ignores everything in the other branches. This should hopefully clear up confusion, usually caused by the user looking for a strategy that resolves all conflict hunks in favour of HEAD (which is completely different and currently not supported).
