merge: use bid merge by default (BC) In most cases merges will work exactly as before. The only difference is in criss-cross merge situations where there is multiple ancestors. Instead of picking an more or less arbitrary ancestor, it will consider both ancestors and pick the best bids. Bid merge can be disabled with --config merge.preferancestor='!'.
