+ * Purpose of src_entry and dst_entry:
+ *
+ * If 'before' is renamed to 'after' then src_entry will contain
+ * the versions of 'before' from the merge_base, HEAD, and MERGE in
+ * stages 1, 2, and 3; dst_entry will contain the respective
+ * versions of 'after' in corresponding locations. Thus, we have a
+ * total of six modes and oids, though some will be null. (Stage 0
+ * is ignored; we're interested in handling conflicts.)
+ *
+ * Since we don't turn on break-rewrites by default, neither
+ * src_entry nor dst_entry can have all three of their stages have
+ * non-null oids, meaning at most four of the six will be non-null.
+ * Also, since this is a rename, both src_entry and dst_entry will
+ * have at least one non-null oid, meaning at least two will be
+ * non-null. Of the six oids, a typical rename will have three be
+ * non-null. Only two implies a rename/delete, and four implies a
+ * rename/add.
