Hi,

I'm now at the stage where everything is imported properly and ended up trying 
to merge A2 and B2 which resulted in 7 merge conflicts, I'm not sure how to 
display them (possibly via web ui) or even better how to replace that merge 
with another file, basically ending up with desired fake merge.

thanks,

Marek

As long as you don't mind that the revision graph will not show any
indication of a merge, you can just commit A3 as is.

If you do want the graph to show a merge, you can do a fossil merge,
then replace the result with your A3 before commiting.

(As I mentioned, fossil merge does not automatically commit the result
of a merge. In your case, it would merge changes from B into your
working copy of A2, leaving the resulting files for you to
review/edit/replace, then you have to do the actual commit.)
