From 161807349aa1ee853880a5c6e39c53f55b10077d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff King Date: Thu, 12 May 2011 07:09:46 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] cherry-pick: handle root commits with external strategies The merge-recursive strategy already handles root commits; it cherry-picks the difference between the empty tree and the root commit's tree. However, for external strategies, we dereference NULL and segfault while building the argument list. Instead, let's handle this by passing the empty tree sha1 to the merge script.
