Perhaps I am not reading what the option does correctly, but my
understanding is that merge operations:
- always allow rerere to intervene and auto-resolve in the working
tree, as long as rerere is enabled;
- by default they however do not add the rerere-resolved result to
the index, so that the combined diff output from "git diff" can
be used as a way to sanity check the result; but
- if the user says --rerere-autoupdate, they add the
rerere-resolved result to the index, letting the user blindly
trust it, so that such a trusting user can even commit the result
without looking at it by merely making sure there is no path
remaining in the "git ls-files -u" output.
The "autoupdate" could be somewhat dangerous depending on your
workflow, and that is why the user can selectively enable it via the
command line option (when known to be safe) even if the user does
not set rerere.autoupdate to true.
So I am not sure I understand "an option to allow something to be
done automatically should not be given manually" as a valid argument
at all, whether it is weak or strong.
Or am I grossly confused?
