The Subversion Merge option in the IDE applies the differences between two sources to a working copy path. Unfortunately, it's not always possible to resolve a conflict straight away but with the early warning, you'll be better prepared, avoiding any nasty surprises at merge time!Ĭheck out this blog post or the GitLive docs if you want to learn more.Go Up to Subversion Integration in the IDE For simple conflicts this can be a quick way to resolve them as identical changes on different branches will merge cleanly. These conflicts can be uncommitted local changes you have not pushed yet or existing changes on your branch that conflict with your teammates’ changes.Ĭlick your teammate’s icon in the gutter to see the diff between your version and theirs, the branch the offending changes are from, and the issue connected to that branch if there is one.įrom this popup you can also cherry-pick your teammate’s change directly from their local version of the file.

If you've made a conflicting change you will see the bright red conflict indicator. These will show you where your teammates have made changes compared to your version of the file and even update in real-time as you and your teammates are editing. If it's enabled there will be one or more change indicators in the gutter of the editor. It will be disabled if the file open in the editor is not from git or there are no other changes to it from contributors working on other branches (aka you are safe from conflicts).


Then if you right click the gutter on Android Studio, you will see the option to “Show Other's Changes".

If only there was an early warning system for merge conflicts so you could be better prepared or even avoid the conflicts in the first place I hear you say? Well if you are an Android Studio user today is your lucky day!įirstly, you'll need to install and set up GitLive (the latest version requires the Bumblebee Beta version of Android Studio). You've finished crafting the perfect code, just a quick merge in of master (ahem, main) before you submit your PR, and then.
