            Bug ID: 4841
           Summary: no way to escape from a series of interactive conflict
                    resolutions
           Product: Mercurial
           Version: earlier

                OS: Windows

If the user has an interactive merge tool configured, it will spawn for every
file with conflicts. If there are a lot of conflicts, the user can get stuck in
nearly endless invocations of the merge tool, and there is no way to escape
this fate.

Lots of conflicts are common when the rebases or merge is doomed anyway (ie,
wrong destination), so this is especially frustrating in this case.
