How to resolve PRs on Github How PRs work in general The tool you're probably thinking of in IntelliJ is documented here but generally, resolving on Github is easier
Thank you, AlexDvorak. Thankfully so far people have resolved the conflicts themselves, which is good because the resolve conflicts button wasn't working and I would have had to use the command line and that seemed intimidating. I should probably do a github minicourse on udemy or something because I've read a couple articles and played around with it but I still feel confused.
So opened this project up for Hacktoberfest, and I've gotten lots of contributors and it's great and fun, but I've discovered that I have no idea about merge conflicts.
I know what they are, but I've been using github in the browser and with github desktop and I'm not sure about how to resolve them using github desktop and I have git bash on my computer but I've barely touched it so it's a bit intimidating to use.
I use intellij for the java programming course I've been using and I know there's a tool in it that allows me to compare files in it, can I use that to resolve the conflicts before pushing to github from github desktop?
