git-merge(1)
============
v0.99.6, Sep 2005
NAME
----
git-merge - Grand Unified Merge Driver
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-merge' [-n] [-s <strategy>]... <msg> <head> <remote> <remote>...
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This is the top-level user interface to the merge machinery
which drives multiple merge strategy scripts.
OPTIONS
-------
-n::
Do not show diffstat at the end of the merge.
-s <strategy>::
use that merge strategy; can be given more than once to
specify them in the order they should be tried. If
there is no `-s` option, built-in list of strategies is
used instead.
<head>::
our branch head commit.
<remote>::
other branch head merged into our branch. You need at
least one <remote>. Specifying more than one <remote>
obviously means you are trying an Octopus.
