The only time git_xmerge_style isn't >= 0 is when no merge style has
been configured by the user.

I don't see why this:

  git -c merge.conflictstyle=merge merge

Should have a different behavior than this:

  git merge

In fact, I don't see why any style should change that desired behavior.
If you said there's issues with the "merge" style too, perhaps the above
will help for those cases too.

I thought you meant as a separate configurable flag, not something done
by default.

Now that I understand what you meant I think it could be a great idea.

Cheers.
