- mmmmeeeerrrrggggeeee incorporates all changes that lead from _f_i_l_e_2 to _f_i_l_e_3 into _f_i_l_e_1.
- The result goes to standard output if ----pppp is present, into _f_i_l_e_1
- otherwise. mmmmeeeerrrrggggeeee is useful for combining separate changes to an
- original. Suppose _f_i_l_e_2 is the original, and both _f_i_l_e_1 and _f_i_l_e_3 are
- modifications of _f_i_l_e_2. Then mmmmeeeerrrrggggeeee combines both changes.
-
- A conflict occurs if both _f_i_l_e_1 and _f_i_l_e_3 have changes in a common
- segment of lines. If a conflict is found, mmmmeeeerrrrggggeeee normally outputs a
- warning and brackets the conflict with <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< and >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> lines. A
- typical conflict will look like this:
-
- <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< _f_i_l_e _A
- _l_i_n_e_s _i_n _f_i_l_e _A
- ============================
- _l_i_n_e_s _i_n _f_i_l_e _B
- >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> _f_i_l_e _B
-
- If there are conflicts, the user should edit the result and delete one of
- the alternatives.
-
- OOOOPPPPTTTTIIIIOOOONNNNSSSS
- ----AAAA Output conflicts using the ----AAAA style of ddddiiiiffffffff3333(1), if supported by
- ddddiiiiffffffff3333. This merges all changes leading from _f_i_l_e_2 to _f_i_l_e_3 into
- _f_i_l_e_1, and generates the most verbose output.
-
- ----EEEE, ----eeee
- These options specify conflict styles that generate less information
- than ----AAAA. See ddddiiiiffffffff3333(1) for details. The default is ----EEEE. With ----eeee,
- mmmmeeeerrrrggggeeee does not warn about conflicts.
-
- ----LLLL _l_a_b_e_l
- This option may be given up to three times, and specifies labels to
- be used in place of the corresponding file names in conflict
- reports. That is, mmmmeeeerrrrggggeeee ----LLLL xxxx ----LLLL yyyy ----LLLL zzzz aaaa bbbb cccc generates output that
- looks like it came from files xxxx, yyyy and zzzz instead of from files aaaa, bbbb
- and cccc.
-
- ----pppp Send results to standard output instead of overwriting _f_i_l_e_1.
-
- ----qqqq Quiet; do not warn about conflicts.
-
- ----VVVV Print 's version number.

- It normally does not make sense to merge binary files as if they were
- text, but mmmmeeeerrrrggggeeee tries to do it anyway.
