How to continue an aborted merge operation

Hi!

It is possible to continue an interrupted merge operation at the point, where
the operation was actually interrupted? The interruption may happen due to a
bad internet connection, for instance. If I simply reissue the same merge
command the whole merge process is restarted.

This behavior IMO has at least two problems. For one, if the internet
connection stays unstable, the chance that merge operation will soon be
completed stays small. Also, as the merge operation is applied more than once,
the result is not the same as for the single (successful) merge operation, as
differences are applied more than once (verified this at least in conflicting
situation), so one should revert the erroneous merge before issuing a new one.

Is there a way to circumvent this?

Thanks a lot!

Bye,
Sebastian
