Subject: [PATCH v3 5/8] merge, sequencer: switch recursive merges over to ort

From: "Elijah Newren via GitGitGadget" <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 08 Apr 2025 15:48:39 +0000

From: Elijah Newren <[email-masked]>

More precisely, replace calls to merge_recursive() with
merge_ort_recursive().

Also change t7615 to quit calling out recursive; it is not needed
anymore, and we are in fact using ort now.
