git_merge_commits

Version:

Merge two commits, producing a git_index that reflects the result of the merge. The index may be written as-is to the working directory or checked out. If the index is to be converted to a tree, the caller should resolve any conflicts that arose as part of the merge.

The returned index must be freed explicitly with git_index_free.
