resolving-merge-conflictslisted

Resolves an in-progress git merge or rebase conflict by tracing why each side changed, reconciling every conflicted hunk, running the project's checks, and finishing the merge or rebase. Use when a merge, rebase, or pull stops on conflicts, when files contain conflict markers, or when the user asks to fix or resolve merge conflicts.

1. **See the current state** of the merge/rebase. Check git history, and the conflicting files. 2. **Find the primary sources** for each conflict. Understand deeply why each change was made, and what the original intent was. Read the commit messages, check the PRs, check the original issues. When there are many conflicts, hand this research to a sub-agent that returns only the intent of each side. 3. **Resolve each hunk.** Preserve both intents where possible. Where incompatible, pick the one matching the merge's stated goal and note the trade-off. Do **not** invent new behaviour. Always resolve; never `--abort`. 4. Discover the project's **automated checks** and run them, typically typecheck, then tests, then format. Fix anything the merge broke. 5. **Finish the merge/rebase.** Stage everything and commit. If rebasing, continue the rebase process until all commits are rebased.
