Please don't do that.
I got conflicts anyway, and I'd rather see them. Honestly, I want to
know, but I also am quite possibly better at resolving those conflicts
than most developers, because I do a *lot* of merges.
Why do I have to say this *every* single merge window?
Stop trying to hide your conflicts. Stop thinking that I prefer them
hidden over being there. Stop doing crazy merges from trees that
aren't yours and you were not asked to pull!
Really.
