When I said "merge", I meant literally "git merge <some stable branch
from the vfs-mapping tree that contains the conflicting commit>" not
cherry pick the commits i.e. you would need to coordinate with
Christian about having a common branch (or making sure that the part of
his tree you pull in is immutable).
