Oh, good point. After starting on merge-ort, I shifted back and forth between it and cleaning up merge-recursive for a while...and it looks like this is one of the things I forgot to copy over. The reason was totally opaque to me until Johannes spelled it out over here: https://lore.kernel.org/git/nycvar.QRO.7.76.6.1907252055500.21907@tvgsbejvaqbjf.bet/ Note that the same reversing of merge bases is done in builtin/merge.c and sequencer.c as well. It resulted in me adding the following note to the declaration of merge_recursive() in merge-recursive.h: * NOTE: empirically, about a decade ago it was determined that with more * than two merge bases, optimal behavior was found when the * merge_bases were passed in the order of oldest commit to newest * commit. Also, merge_bases will be consumed (emptied) so make a * copy if you need it. but I never copied that comment over to merge_incore_recursive().

It's specifically the merge_recursive_generic() function from merge-recursive.c that sets this, which was part of the merge-recursive API. merge-ort does not (yet?) have an equivalent function (anything calling merge_recursive_generic() just can't use merge-ort right now -- a list that includes 'am', 'stash', and 'merge-recursive'). For now, I am just letting those callers continue to use merge-recursive.c. I never figured out if I wanted to make that function part of merge-ort's API, whether I just wanted to add a wrapper to merge-ort-wrappers.[ch] for it, or if I should rewrite the callers to do something else. However, looking a little closer, the name for opt->ancestor is slightly phony -- I think it only makes sense for "am", not for either of "stash" or "merge-recursive". Perhaps I should instead count the number of merge_bases, and assert that either opt->ancestor == NULL (exclusive)OR num_merge_bases == 1. merge_recursive_generic() should also be made to stop setting opt->ancestor, and then callers like "am", "stash", and "merge-recursive" should be responsible to provide a reasonable ancestor name for merge.conflictStyle=diff3 to use when it's clear they are providing the sole ancestor. Then at some point I can decide what to do with merge_recursive_generic(). I'll probably just make it a wrapper at some point; since that lets me kick the can down the road even further. :-) > > + merge_start(opt, result); > > + merge_ort_internal(opt, merge_bases, side1, side2, result); > > }

Most callers just grab all the merge bases and often there happens to be only one. In such a case, the caller shouldn't have to set opt->ancestor; the fallback of referencing the commit id is perfectly good there. It's just that when there is exactly one merge base, a special caller like merge_recursive_generic() might want to override the value for opt->ancestor.
