# By Stephen Leake, Jun 19, 2012:
Changing dropped/modified from warning to conflict complicates an important use
case; upstream modified, local dropped. For example, upstream uses a particular
build file that local does not need, so local wants to drop it and ignore all
future changes.
One way to support that use case, and similar ones, is to provide a
'mtn:resolve_conflict' attribute, to specify the 'drop' resolution for this
case. Work on this is being done in branch nvm.issue-209.file_attribute.
That attribute requires an extra branch in some cases; for example, where
upstream is in mtn, but does not want to add the attributes, the local
maintainer needs another branch that is a copy of upstream but adds the
attributes. To resolve that issue, we could try to store attributes for deleted
nodes in a new revision level structure. However, it is difficult to uniquely
identify the file involved in a way that can be synced, in the face of renames
upstream.

fixed in branch nvm.issue-209; dropped/modified conflicts are fully supported.
Status: Started

Steps to reproduce the problem:
-------------------------------
1. create two heads, one with file_a modified, one with file_a dropped
2. merge
Expected result:
----------------
merge reports a drop/modified conflict
Actual results:
---------------
warning about modifications being lost due to drop
Output of `mtn version --full`:
-------------------------------
1.0
