What I want is a system that records how conflicts are resolved and tries to apply that resolve. Lets say I have apply patch A, then patch B, there is a conflict, I resolve it. Then someone else applies patch B and then patch A. The VCS should know that this conflict is already resolve and apply the solution. Likewise when applying first patch C, then A and B, it should let you resolve the conflict from AB to ABC and again record the resolved conflict for the future. I'm actually fine with manually resolving conflicts, but don't want to it twice if I don't have to. This would be a great way to organize something like dwm, but I couldn't get it to work with pijul at all.
