[PATCH] read-tree --emu23.
This new flag causes two-way fast forward to internally use the
three-way merge mechanism. This behaviour is intended to offer
a better fast forward semantics when used in a dirty work tree.
The new test t1005 is parallel to the existing t1001 "pure
2-way" tests, but some parts that are commented out would fail.
These failures are due to three-way merge enforcing too strict
index requirements for cases that could succeed. This problem
will be addressed by later patches.
Without even changing three-way mechanism, the --emu23 two-way
fast forward already gives the user an easier-to-handle merge
result when a file that "merged head" updates has local
modifications. This is demonstrated as "case 16" test in t1005.
