Just because the evidence was lost of them doesn't mean the merge conflict markers were never there.Any time you integrate two branches, no matter how long running or short running, you have possible merge conflicts. Like I said, I prefer keeping that integration log as a tangible source control artifact. I understand how many people don't care for it. But don't mistake it for so
