resolve merge conflicts
What it does
- Take one side wholesale with git checkout --ours -- path/to/file or git checkout --theirs -- path/to/file when appropriate.
- Otherwise edit the file directly and remove the conflict markers.
- Read more of the file only if the compact output is not enough to decide the correct merge.
- Ensure no unmerged paths remain.
- Ensure no <<<<<<<, =======, or >>>>>>> markers remain in the resolved files.
- Run targeted tests, builds, or linters for the touched area.
- Stage the resolved files.

What does the resolve-merge-conflicts skill do?
Resolve Git merge conflicts by extracting only unresolved paths, conflict hunks, and compact diffs instead of loading whole files into context. Use when a merge, rebase, cherry-pick, or stash pop stops on conflicts, when `git status` shows unmerged paths, or when files contain conflict markers. Take one side wholesale with git checkout --ours -- path/to/file or git checkout --theirs -- path/to/file when appropriate. Otherwise edit the file directly and remove the conflict markers.
