52 * * these keys serve to intern all the path strings, which allows
53 * us to do pointer comparison on directory names instead of
54 * strcmp; we just have to be careful to use the interned strings.
56 * The values of paths:
57 * * either a pointer to a merged_info, or a conflict_info struct
58 * * merged_info contains all relevant information for a
59 * non-conflicted entry.
60 * * conflict_info contains a merged_info, plus any additional
61 * information about a conflict such as the higher orders stages
62 * involved and the names of the paths those came from (handy
63 * once renames get involved).
64 * * a path may start "conflicted" (i.e. point to a conflict_info)
65 * and then a later step (e.g. three-way content merge) determines
66 * it can be cleanly merged, at which point it'll be marked clean
67 * and the algorithm will ignore any data outside the contained
68 * merged_info for that entry
69 * * If an entry remains conflicted, the merged_info portion of a
70 * conflict_info will later be filled with whatever version of
71 * the file should be placed in the working directory (e.g. an
72 * as-merged-as-possible variation that contains conflict markers).
77 * conflicted: a subset of keys->values from "paths"
79 * conflicted is basically an optimization between process_entries()
80 * and record_conflicted_index_entries(); the latter could loop over
81 * ALL the entries in paths AGAIN and look for the ones that are
82 * still conflicted, but since process_entries() has to loop over
83 * all of them, it saves the ones it couldn't resolve in this strmap
84 * so that record_conflicted_index_entries() can iterate just the
87 struct strmap conflicted;
