ADCode

Merge conflict resolution

When two people changed the same line, this shows you both versions side by side and lets you pick.

When you would want it

A conflict is the one moment source control cannot decide for you, and the raw markers it leaves in the file are genuinely hard to read.

Where to find it

  • All Features → Merge conflict resolution
  • Settings → adcode.git.mergeConflict

What you get out of it

  • You resolve conflict by conflict without losing your place.
  • Both sides stay visible while you decide - no mental diffing of marker soup.
  • Manual editing stays available for the cases no button anticipates.

How to use it, step by step

  1. Pull or merge as usual; conflicted files are listed in Source Control.
  2. Open one - both versions appear clearly marked, side by side.
  3. Above each conflict choose Keep yours, Keep theirs, or Keep both.
  4. Hand-edit the merged result where none of the buttons fit.
  5. Save, stage the file, and commit the merge.

Why this beats the usual way

Raw conflict markers ('<<<<<<< HEAD') are git's most notorious reading experience, and lightweight editors leave them untouched. ADCode renders the choices as buttons over both versions - the thing paid IDEs charge for, included.
