Hi,
I use a locally modified version of fossil, where customizations are in a
separate branch. I often merge from trunk to get latest updates.
This time when I tried to merge, I got 4 conflicts indicating binary files:
$ fossil merge trunk
...
MERGE src/clone.c
* Cannot merge binary file src/clone.c
MERGE src/diffcmd.c
* Cannot merge binary file src/diffcmd.c
MERGE src/file.c
* Cannot merge binary file src/file.c
MERGE src/timeline.c
* Cannot merge binary file src/timeline.c
WARNING: 4 merge conflicts
I assume last time when I merged and committed these files, they got
committed as binary files.
How do I find cause of them considered as binary and how do I fix them so
that I can merge without any issues?
I have attached one of the file for reference.
