How to git find a subtree when we use a subtree merge strategy? I find only one mention here : βIt actually guesses the subtrees you want to combine. Usually this magically turns out to be correct, but if your subtree contains a lot of changes (or was originally empty, or something else), then it can fail effectively. " How does he guess and what can I do if this fails? Something changed after aug'09 when this answer was written?
