As much as I like rerere, I have had it result in silently[1] producing the wrong end result. Especially since I merge / rebase frequently, and end up recording lots of small conflict resolutions. Always always always check non-clean merges by hand or you'll eventually be surprised.

And sometimes I just resolved it incorrectly once, and now it always does it wrong. Is there a way to make rerere forget a resolution?

[1]: relatively speaking. it doesn't fail / pause the operation, so it's "silent", even though it prints out that it applied a conflict-fix.
