Git works on the "clean" representation of the data, i.e. the representation of the blob object stored in the object database and in the index, when manipulating the contents, e.g. diffing two variants, patching (think "add -p"), merging, etc. As you are making the "clean" version an encrypted opaque sequence of bytes, it is expected that you wouldn't be able to run 3-way merges. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
