How do I resolve merge conflicts in Git?

To resolve merge conflicts in Git, first, identify the files with conflicts using git status. Then, open those files and look for the conflict markers (<<<<<<<, =======, >>>>>>>). Edit the file to resolve the conflicts, then save it.

What if I want to keep changes from both branches?

You can manually merge the changes by editing the file to include both sets of changes. After resolving, remove the conflict markers and save the file.

How do I stage the resolved files?

Use git add <filename> to stage the resolved files. Once all conflicts are resolved and staged, you can commit the changes with git commit.

Is there a way to abort the merge if I change my mind?

Yes, you can abort the merge by running git merge --abort. This will revert your repository to the state before the merge started.
