We want to load unmerged entries from HEAD into the index at stage 2 and
from MERGE_HEAD into stage 3. Similarly, folks expect merge conflicts
to look like
<<<<<<<< HEAD
content from our side
========
content from their side
>>>>>>>> MERGE_HEAD
not
<<<<<<<< MERGE_HEAD
content from their side
========
content from our side
>>>>>>>> HEAD
The correct order usually comes naturally and for free, but with renames
we often have data in the form {rename_branch, other_branch}, and
working relative to the rename first (e.g. for rename/add) is more
convenient elsewhere in the code. Address the slight impedance
mismatch by having some functions re-call themselves with flipped
arguments when the branch order is reversed.
Note that setup_rename_conflict_info() has one asymmetry in it, in
setting dst_entry1->processed=0 but not doing similarly for
dst_entry2->processed. When dealing with rename/rename and similar
conflicts, we do not want the processing to happen twice, so the
desire to only set one of the entries to unprocessed is intentional.
So, while this change modifies which branch's entry will be marked as
unprocessed, that dovetails nicely with putting HEAD first so that we
get the index stage entries and conflict markers in the right order.

There was a discussion of problematic directory/file conflicts with
virtual merge bases on the mailing list years ago at
https://public-inbox.org/git/AANLkTimwUQafGDrjxWrfU9uY1uKoFLJhxYs=vssOPqdf@mail.gmail.com/
Part of these corresponding tests made it into this testsuite. However,
the more problematic one didn't. And there are others that showcase the
problems even more. Add a very lengthy explanation, some of it from that
email, describing the tradeoffs in picking a recursive merge-base when
you're dealing with an add/add directory/file conflict.
The solution picked years ago is relatively good, but there is the
potential to do even better, assuming we're willing to pay a certain
performance cost.

These tests reference non-existent object "c" when they really mean to
be referencing "C", however, these errors went unnoticed due to a broken
&&-chain later in the tests. Fix these errors, as well as the broken

These tests used pretty strong measures to get a clean slate:
git rm -rf . &&
git clean -fdqx &&
rm -rf .git &&
git init &&
It's easier, safer (what if a previous test has a bug and accidentally
changes into a directory outside the test path?), and allows re-inspecting
test setup later if we instead just use test_create_repo to put different
tests into separate sub-repositories.

"git rerere" can get confused by conflict markers deliberately left
by the inner merge step, because they are indistinguishable from
the real conflict markers left by the outermost merge which are
what the end user and "rerere" need to look at. This was fixed by
making the conflict markers left by the inner merges a bit longer.
* jc/ll-merge-internal:
t6036: remove pointless test that expects failure
ll-merge: use a longer conflict marker for internal merge
ll-merge: fix typo in comment

One test in t6036 prepares a file whose contents contain these
lines:
<<<<<<< Temporary merge branch 1
C
=======
B
>>>>>>> Temporary merge branch 2
and uses recursive merge strategy to run criss-cross merge with it.
Manual merge resolution by users fundamentally depends on being able
to distinguish the tracked contents from the separator lines added
by "git merge" in order to allow users to tell which block of lines
came from where. You can deliberately craft a file with lines that
resemble conflict marker lines to make it impossible for the user
(the outer merge of merge-recursive counts as a user of the result
of "virtual parent" merge) to tell which part is which, and write a
test to demonstrate that with such a file that "git merge" cannot
fundamentally work well and has to fail.
It however is pointless and waste of time and resource to run such a
test that asserts the obvious.
In real life, people who do need to track files with such lines that
have <<<< ==== >>>> as their prefixes set the conflict-marker-size
attribute to make sure they will be able to tell between the tracked
lines that happen to begin with these (confusing) prefixes and the
marker lines that are added by "git merge".
Remove the test as pointless waste of resource.

The primary use of conflict markers is to help the user who resolves
the final (outer) merge by hand to show which part came from which
branch by separating the blocks of lines apart. When the conflicted
parts from a "virtual ancestor" merge created by merge-recursive
remains in the common ancestor part in the final result, however,
the conflict markers that are the same size as the final merge
become harder to see.
Increase the conflict marker size slightly for these inner merges so
that the markers from the final merge and cruft from internal merge
can be distinguished more easily.
This would help reduce the common issue that prevents "rerere" from
being used on a really complex conflict.

These test scripts likely predate test_must_fail, and can be
made simpler by using it (in addition to making them pass
--chain-lint).
The case in t6036 loses some verbosity in the failure case,
but it is so tied to a specific failure mode that it is not
worth keeping around (and the outcome of the test is not
affected at all).

These are tests which are missing a link in their &&-chain,

Earlier in this series, the patch "merge-recursive: add handling for
rename/rename/add-dest/add-dest" added code to handle the rename on each
side of history also being involved in a rename/add conflict, but only
did so in the non-recursive case. Add code for the recursive case,
ensuring that the "added" files are not simply deleted.

Our previous conflict resolution for renaming two different files to the
same name ignored the fact that each of those files may have modifications
from both sides of history to consider. We need to do a three-way merge
for each of those files, and then handle the conflict of both sets of
merged contents trying to be recorded with the same name.
It is important to note that this changes our strategy in the recursive
case. After doing a three-way content merge of each of the files
involved, we still are faced with the fact that we are trying to put both
of the results (including conflict markers) into the same path. We could
do another two-way merge, but I think that becomes confusing. Also,
taking a hint from the modify/delete and rename/delete cases we handled
earlier, a more useful "common ground" would be to keep the three-way
content merge but record it with the original filename. The renames can
still be detected, we just allow it to be done in the o->call_depth=0
case. This seems to result in simpler & easier to understand merge
conflicts as well, as evidenced by some of the changes needed in our
testsuite in t6036. (However, it should be noted that this change will
cause problems those renames also occur along with a file being added
whose name matches the source of the rename. Since git currently cannot
detect rename/add-source situations, though, this codepath is not
currently used for those cases anyway.

When renaming one file to two files, we really should be doing a content
merge. Also, in the recursive case, undoing the renames and recording the
merged file in the index with the source of the rename (while deleting
both destinations) allows the renames to be re-detected in the
non-recursive merge and will result in fewer spurious conflicts.

When o->call_depth>0 and we have conflicts, we try to find "middle ground"
when creating the virtual merge base. In the case of content conflicts,
this can be done by doing a three-way content merge and using the result.
In all parts where the three-way content merge is clean, it is the correct
middle ground, and in parts where it conflicts there is no middle ground
but the conflict markers provide a good compromise since they are unlikely
to accidentally match any further changes.
In the case of a modify/delete conflict, we cannot do the same thing.
Accepting either endpoint as the resolution for the virtual merge base
runs the risk that when handling the non-recursive case we will silently
accept one person's resolution over another without flagging a conflict.
In this case, the closest "middle ground" we have is actually the merge
base of the candidate merge bases. (We could alternatively attempt a
three way content merge using an empty file in place of the deleted file,
but that seems to be more work than necessary.)

The code for rename_rename_2to1 conflicts (two files both being renamed to
the same filename) was dead since the rename/add path was always being
independently triggered for each of the renames instead. Further,
reviving the dead code showed that it was inherently buggy and would
always segfault -- among a few other bugs.
Move the else-if branch for the rename/rename block before the rename/add
block to make sure it is checked first, and fix up the rename/rename(2to1)
code segments to make it handle most cases. Work is still needed to
handle higher dimensional corner cases such as rename/rename/modify/modify
issues.

When a commit moves A to B while another commit created B (or moved C to
B), and these two different commits serve as different merge-bases for a
later merge, c94736a (merge-recursive: don't segfault while handling
rename clashes 2009-07-30) added some special code to avoid segfaults.
Since that commit, the two versions of B are merged in place (which could
be potentially conflicting) and the intermediate result is used as the
virtual ancestor.
However, right before this special merge, try_merge was turned on, meaning
that process_renames() would try an alternative merge that ignores the
'add' part of the conflict, and, if the merge is clean, store that as the
new virtual ancestor. This could cause incorrect merging of criss-cross
merges; it would typically result in just recording a slightly confusing
merge base, but in some cases it could cause silent acceptance of one side
of a merge as the final resolution when a conflict should have been
flagged.
When we do a special merge for such a rename/add conflict between
merge-bases, turn try_merge off to avoid an inappropriate second merge.

If merging two lines of development involves a rename/add conflict, and two
different people make such a merge but resolve it differently, and then
someone tries to merge the resulting two merges, then they should clearly
get a conflict due to the different resolutions from the previous
developers. However, in some such cases the conflict would not be detected
and git would silently accept one of the two versions being merged as the
final merge resolution.

When a branch moves A to B while the other branch created B (or moved C to
B), the code tried to rename one of them to B~something to preserve both
versions, and failed to register temporary resolution for the original
path B at stage#0 during virtual ancestor computation. This left the
index in unmerged state and caused a segfault.
A better solution is to merge these two versions of B's in place and use
the (potentially conflicting) result as the intermediate merge result in
the virtual ancestor.
