Working on this as part of #100

Any news about this feature? :)

[mauricioaniche]

Not from me. Do you wanna work on it, @ttben ? Let me know and we can discuss the implementation!

[ttben]

I can't implement it for now, as I rush 2 papers.. But we can always discuss :) This way, if someone else has time, it will be quicker to implement it!

Adding this feature should:

• not break any existing code using RepoDriller,
• be seamless for new users,
• provide "left" and "right" parent.

Problem: if one wants to analyse every merge commits, even with left and right fields, she has no idea the branches of left and right. For now, left and right would be String ; but I think Commit instances would be better (see #112) as it embed every usefull information.

Adding a subclass MergeCommit to Commit class will match this constraints and fill the required feature. I am clearly a newbie in this project as I just discovered it few days ago, don't hesitate to tell me if I am talking non sense!..

[mauricioaniche]

Really clear. I'll try to tackle this issue soon!

Thanks :) I think it will be a useful information!
