Subject: ediff to combine A and B
Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2015 10:50:33 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <uaxlhl39hqu.fsf@beesknees.cern.ch> (raw)

Dear all,

somebody can help? I'm using ediff with ORG files quite often. Usually
any writing into journal.org results in merge conflicts, which have to
be resolved manually.

Most of the time the resolve involves joining the bufferA and bufferB
into the bufferC. For the moment what I do is, that I use 'a' or 'b'
keystroke to make one of those buffers copied into bufferC, and _then
manually_ copy the content of the other buffer into the bufferC.

Is there any way how in ediff join the differences of each buffer wrt
ancestor and apply those on bufferC?

many thanks
david
