There's some opportunities here but most are definitely outside the scope of this patch. One inline to consider but do what makes sense to you.

mercurial/merge.py
1254–1263

I've seen this trick used in the mercurial codebase to fit more on a single line:

s = repo.ui.status
...
s(_("%s: path conflict - a file or link has the same name as a directory\n") % f)
...
s(_("resolve manually then use 'hg resolve --mark %s'\n") % f)
...

It may help to tighten up the code a bit here.

future refactoring opportunity! -- this is incredibly ugly, but it's not your fault.

Another future refactoring opportunity.

What test verifies this behavior? Do we need a new one?
