Is there any reason why more commands couldn't use it? At least update and
apply delta would seem to have info about three versions, and it would be
handy to have a more primitive version of --three-way (without star-merge's
auto-magic).
Given your championing of it, I've been giving --three-way a try, and indeed
it's very handy -- my conflicts are reduced to almost nothing (though some of
the remaining conflicts are ... weird), with only changelogs stubbornly
resisting, and I have a shell script to handle those.
