- Allow the rerere mechanism to update the index with the
- result of auto-conflict resolution if possible.
+ After the rerere mechanism reuses a recorded resolution on
+ the current conflict to update the files in the working
+ tree, allow it to also update the index with the result of
+ resolution. <code>--no-rerere-autoupdate</code> is a good way to
+ double-check what <code>rerere</code> did and catch potential
+ mismerges, before committing the result to the index with a
+ separate <code>git add</code>.
