Merge algebra is similar to git with a three way merge. Given that lix tracks individual changes, the three way merge is more fine grained.

In case of a conflict, you can either decide to do last write wins or surface the conflict to the user e.g. "Do you want to keep version A or version B?"

The SQL engine is merge unrelated. Lix uses SQL as storage and query engine, but not for merges.
