That would be very handy. So far, I have no idea what to do with .rej file --
I simply know no way to generate <<<< markers from it, so that I can easily
resolve conflicts. Something like "svn resolve" can will be usefull.
But, maybe, new command is not needed at all: it's is possible, in case of
any conflict, to leave working copy file intact and store results of merge
with <<<< markers in .rej file. I'd personally prefer such behaviour.
