Recently I’ve experienced a significant increase in merge conflicts at the company I’m currently working at (we hired a couple of junior data scientists and some are not that familiar with git)

Even though those merge conflicts can be a little tedious to resolve, I realized that I personally started to enjoy it - especially using fugitive. Haven’t had many conflicts in a while, so almost forgot about Gdiffsplit and how awesome that plugin is…

Now I’m wondering, how often do you have to resolve (more or less complex) merge conflicts?

    Depended on the size of the team in my experience. With a project of ~50 devs split into 10 teams, I was having to resolve conflicts perhaps every other PR. But training and standards for workflow can certainly help.
