|
||||
up working tree changes made by 2. and 3.; 'git-reset --hard' can
|
||||
be used for this.
|
||||
|
||||
* Resolve the conflicts. `git diff` would report only the
|
||||
conflicting paths because of the above 2. and 3.
|
||||
Edit the working tree files into a desirable shape
|
||||
('git mergetool' can ease this task), 'git-add' or 'git-rm'
|
||||
them, to make the index file contain what the merge result
|
||||
should be, and run 'git-commit' to commit the result.
|
||||
* Resolve the conflicts. Git will mark the conflicts in
|
||||
the working tree. Edit the files into shape and
|
||||
'git-add' to the index. 'git-commit' to seal the deal.
|
||||
|
||||
You can work through the conflict with a number of tools:
|
||||
|
||||
* Use a mergetool. 'git mergetool' to launch a graphical
|
||||
mergetool which will work you through the merge.
|
||||
|
||||
* Look at the diffs. 'git diff' will show a three-way diff,
|
||||
highlighting changes from both the HEAD and remote versions.
|
||||
|
||||
* Look at the diffs on their own. 'git log --merge -p <path>'
|
||||
will show diffs first for the HEAD version and then the
|
||||
remote version.
|
||||
|
||||
* Look at the originals. 'git show :1:filename' shows the
|
||||
common ancestor, 'git show :2:filename' shows the HEAD
|
||||
version and 'git show :3:filename' shows the remote version.
