Code review comment for lp:~spiv/bzr-builder/merge-subdirs-479705

Daniel: I agree, nest-part is probably a better description for users. It happens that the implementation in bzr reuses a bunch of merge infrastructure, but I think it's fair to say that's an implementation detail that is irrelevant to users. So I've updated the patch accordingly, thank you!

James: So what is the plan for dealing or not with older bzr versions for now? The relevant bzr change is with PQM for landing in 2.2 right now. I'll going resubmit this patch for merging without any backwards compat for bzr < 2.2 included, but if you do want it I can make an additional proposal to copy the MergeIntoMerge bits into bzr-builder. At this point I'm basically just asking for a clear "Yes, do that" or "No, don't bother" instruction and then I'll go and do as you say, the current plan is a bit unclear with bug 603615 not going anywhere atm.

(Because the trunk branch has changed since I first created this proposal I'm going to mark this one as rejected and create a new one. But I really just resubmitting this patch.)
