How do I resolve Git merge conflicts between branches?

To resolve Git merge conflicts, this Skill interactively guides you through identifying and fixing conflicts file by file, then helps you commit the resolution. It supports automatic base branch detection or lets you specify the base branch for merging.

Do I need Git and GitHub CLI to fix merge conflicts with this tool?

Yes, you need Git and GitHub CLI installed to fix merge conflicts with this tool. The Skill requires these dependencies for fetching branch data, merging code, and checking PR status during the interactive resolution process.

What is the best way to handle code integration conflicts when merging a feature branch?

The best way to handle code integration conflicts is using an interactive guide that systematically addresses each conflict file by file. This ensures you choose the correct code changes and smoothly commit the resolution into the base branch.

Can I specify a custom base branch when resolving version control conflicts?

Yes, you can specify a custom base branch when resolving version control conflicts. The Skill allows manual specification of the base branch for merging, or it can automatically detect the appropriate base branch for your current repository state.

Why does automatic base branch detection matter for resolving GitHub merge conflicts?

Automatic base branch detection matters for resolving GitHub merge conflicts because it streamlines the process by identifying the correct target branch without manual input. This reduces errors when fetching and merging code changes across multiple feature branches.
