Aborting a Git Merge

Author：JIYIK Last Updated：2025/03/31 Views：

For example, Mario wants to pull the latest changes from the remote repository save-princessinto a repository called . Mario uses git pull origin branch1, but because the locally changed files are modified in Luigithe remote repository , a merge conflict error is raised.save-princess

Merge conflicts can also occur, for example, if edited the same file on the same line as , or Luigideleted the file that was editing, or even if tried to add the same file with the same name that had already added. Git will display a message if a merge conflict occurs during . In simple terms, a merge conflict occurs when two changes affect the same file on the same line.MarioLuigiMarioMarioLuigigit pull

Here are a few ways to resolve merge conflicts:

Resolving merge conflicts in Git by stashing changes

One way to resolve the conflict is to stash the changes you made locally, and then restore the stash again once the merge conflict is gone. This can be achieved in the following way:

Hide Changes
```
git stash
```
Fetch changes from the remote repository.
```
git fetch
```
```
git pull origin save-princess
```
Here, save-princessis the name of the branch that exists in the local and remote repositories.
Pop up hidden changes
```
git stash pop
```

If anything goes wrong after merging, you can always revert your current changes before merging.

To abort the merge, you can use:

git merge --abort

The command above is similar to reset, it resets our commits to the current revision before merging.

git reset --hard
