I don't care about resuming partially completed change merges if that is what you mean. What I do care about is detecting an interrupted merge and starting it again from the beginning. I don't expect reboots to happen very often, so taking an extra hour to redo some lost work won't be significant overall. To be clear, the state file I have been referring to in this discussion is state.txt.
