When performing a "reset --hard" a checkout is done. The pathes are
checked for potential checkout conflicts. But in the end for all
remaining conflicts these files are simply deleted from the working
tree. That's not the right strategy to handle checkout conflicts during
"reset --hard". Instead for every conflict we should simply checkout the
merge commit's content.
This is different from native gits behavior which reports errors when
during a "checkout --hard" a file shows up where a folder was expected.
"warning: unable to unlink d/c.txt: Not a directory"
Why it is like that in native git was asked in
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/279482. Unless
it is explained why native git why this error is reported JGit should
overwrite the files.
