merge: if DELETED_CHANGED and GET are in actions, choose DELETED_CHANGED ACTION_GET represents that either the file is created on remote or it's newer on the remote side. However, since we have a ACTION_DELETE_CHANGED too, it means the file is not present locally and ACTION_GET is representing that file was created on remote. Having both ACTION_GET and ACTION_DELETED_CHANGED is conflicting because one says that file was created on remote and other says file has delete-changed conflicts. Let's choose ACTION_DELETED_CHANGED which will result in conflicts and make user choose the right way forward.

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
