Class MergeAlgorithm

java.lang.Object
  org.eclipse.jgit.merge.MergeAlgorithm

public final class MergeAlgorithm
extends Object

Provides the merge algorithm which does a three-way merge on content provided as RawText. By default HistogramDiff is used as diff algorithm.

Constructor Summary

MergeAlgorithm()
Creates a new MergeAlgorithm which uses HistogramDiff as diff algorithm

MergeAlgorithm(DiffAlgorithm diff)
Creates a new MergeAlgorithm

Method Summary

<S extends Sequence> MergeResult<S>

                                                 S theirs)

Does the three way merge between a common base and two sequences.

Type Parameters:

S - type of sequence.

Parameters:

cmp - comparison method for this execution.

base - the common base sequence

ours - the first sequence to be merged

theirs - the second sequence to be merged

Returns:

the resulting content
