Junio C Hamano c5dc9a2829 git-merge-octopus: use (merge-base A (merge B C D E...)) for stepwise merge 
Suppose you have this topology, and you are trying to make an octopus
across A, B and C (you are at C and merging A and B into your branch).
The protoccol between "git merge" and merge strategies is for the former
to pass common ancestor(s), '--' and then commits being merged.

git-merge-octopus does not produce the final merge in one-go.  It
iteratively produces pairwise merges.  So the first step might be to come
up with a merge between B and C:

               o---o---o---o---C
              /                 :
             /   o---o---o---B..(M)
            /   /
        ---1---2---o---o---o---A

and for that, "1" is used as the merge base, not because it is the base
across A, B and C but because it is the base between B and C.  For this
merge, A does not matter.

I drew M in parentheses and lines between B and C to it in dotted line
because we actually do _not_ create a real commit --- the only thing we
need is a tree object, in order to proceed to the next step.

Then the final merge result is obtained by merging tree of (M) and A using
their common ancestor.  For that, we _could_ still use "1" as the merge
base.

But if you imagine a case where you started from A and M, you would _not_
pick "1" as the merge base; you would rather use "2" which is a better
base for this merge.

That is why git-merge-octopus ignores the merge base given by "merge" but
computes its own.

The comment at the end of git-merge-octopus talks about "merge reference
commit", that we used to update it to common found in this round, and that
that updating was pointless.  After the first round of merge to produce
the tree for M (but without actually creating the commit object M itself),
in order to figure out the merge base used to merge that with A in the
second round, we used to use A and "1" (which was merge base between B and
C).  That was pointless --- "merge-base A 1" is guaranteed to give a base
that is no better than either "merge-base A B" or "merge-base A C".  So
the current code keeps using the original head (iow, MRC=C, because in
this case we are starting from C and merging B and then A into it).

This trickerly was necessary only because we avoided creating the extra
merge commit object M.

	Side note.  An alternative implementation could have been to
	actually record it as a real merge commit M, and then let the
	two-commit merge-base compute the base between A and M when
	merging A to the result of the previous round, but we avoided
	creating M, at the expense of potentially using suboptimal base in
	the later rounds.

But we do not have to be that pessimistic.  We can instead accumulate the
commits we have merged so far in MRC, and have merge_bases_many() compute
the merge base for the new head being merged and the heads we have
processed so far, which can give a better base than what we currently do.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

	GIT - the stupid content tracker

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.

 - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
   actually used by any common UNIX command.  The fact that it is a
   mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
 - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
   dictionary of slang.
 - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
   works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
 - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
See Documentation/tutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands,
and "man git-commandname" for documentation of each command.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/cvs-migration.txt.

Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/
including full documentation and Git related tools.

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe
to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to
majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites.

The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
