Ah, too bad. I never got around to really understand how git "thinks"
while I understand Mercurial well enough and, as with Vim, when I
forget something about Mercurial I find it easily and quickly in the
online help. Lately I used "hg help merge" to get out of the
above-mentioned "mess" and it seems more or less OK. If you retire the
Mercurial repository I shall have to scrap what I have and start again
from scratch with a fresh clone of the git master. I daresay I am not
enchanted with the prospect.

Well, <sigh /> if the Mercurial mirror goes puff, I'll have to decide
either to fall back on the Vim from my distro (always somewhat behind,
currently 9.0.1632 and with a slightly different choice of features
than I would have chosen) or to start learning git seriously on a
fresh clone.

Best regards,
Tony
