Didn't we settle on Phillip's "perform successive three-way merges between
the original merge commit and the new tips with the old tips as base"
strategy? It has the following advantages:

- it is *very simple* to describe

- it is *very easy* to reason about, once it is pointed out that rebases
  and merges result in the same trees.

"True Merge" is probably also a candidate for improvement. If what you
refer to is a "true" merge, that means all others are "untrue" merges???

Ciao,
