Merge conflicts in GitHub

 Merge conflicts in GitHub

Merge conflicts occur when two or more developers make changes to the same file or codebase at the same time. GitHub provides tools to resolve merge conflicts and ensure that the changes are merged without losing any data. To resolve a merge conflict, developers need to review the changes made and decide which changes to keep and which to discard.

Example:

<<<<<<< HEAD

# code from current branch

=======

# code from incoming branch

>>>>>>> incoming-branch
