What Git Conflict Resolver does, with a checked example
Git Conflict Resolver turns the marker-delimited regions in a conflicted file into opposing editable views. Lines between <<<<<<< and ======= form one alternative, while lines between ======= and >>>>>>> form the other; surrounding text remains shared context. You use those views to compose a marker-free result. The common mistake is treating one side as automatically correct or newer. Git records competing content, but the editor cannot know which behavior the finished program should preserve.
Worked example
A concrete input and expected output from the current implementation.
Input
theme:
<<<<<<< HEAD
color: blue
=======
color: green
>>>>>>> feature/green
->
Expected output
theme:
color: blue
This result keeps the HEAD alternative. The divider, boundary markers, feature label, and unselected green line are omitted from the resolved text.
