Subject: bug#21599: Autosave seems to be forced during merge
Date: Sun, 4 Oct 2015 09:17:42 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <DUB123-W32A48E19C6904CC50148BBB1490@phx.gbl> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <201510011706.t91H6P7c029537@sim17.simmetrix.com>

It appears the highlighted (secondlast) line below in ediff-util.el may be forcing the autosave. Can someone confirm?

Is there any way to override this? I abandon merges all the time and do not want these files lying around. Note that I do have
(setq make-backup-files nil)
in .emacs.

Thank you.
