When running learn on this lab, the following error message appears:

We have tried:

There appears to be a merge conflict in the .learn file which is preventing Psych from parsing it correctly. Deleting the lab directory and re-cloning did not change this.

Hi there! This request sounds like an improvement to or a problem with the Learn platform.

Our product team can help you with this. You can reach them at support@learn.co.

Raising issues on GitHub, like you've done here should happen when there are problems with the curriculum itself (doesn't work, throws a Ruby error, etc.)

If, on the other hand, we've misunderstood the purpose of this request, please re-open this issue, provide any additional information you can to clarify our error, and we will try to find a fix.
