If you mean "what is this strange looking patch", then it is the output
from "git diff --cc" after a merge conflict has been fixed up, but before
it is committed.  The '-' lines were added by one side of the merge or
the other, but removed from the final result.  The line with '++' did not
appear in either branch, but is in the final result.  The lines with a
single '+' appear in one of the branches or the other and in the final
result as well.
