It would be nice if you could use WinMerge as the
conflict resolution tool for CVS (specifically TortoiseCVS)

Here's one way of doing this...

* Take a single file as a command-line argument
* Look for <<< === >>> sections, denoting conflicts.
* Create two text streams appropriately
* Pass the two files to the WinMerge core, ready for
editing

* Edit the both files until they're identical

* If you save before they're identical, throw a warning
and save the two files as a combined file, adding <<<
=== >>> sections again
* Otherwise, save as a single file

    There is already RFE #436548 Allow WinMerge to merged CVS
    conflicts.
