"U2" has a concert that starts in 17 minutes and they must all
cross a bridge to get there. They stand on the same side of the
bridge. It is night. There is one flashlight. A maximum of two
people can cross at one time, and they must have the flashlight
with them. The flashlight must be walked back and forth. A
pair walk together at the rate of the slower man's pace:
Bono 1 minute to cross
Edge 2 minutes to cross
Adam 5 minutes to cross

##git mergetool

In the middle file (future merged file), you can navigate between conflicts with ]c and [c.

Choose which version you want to keep with :diffget //2 or :diffget //3 (the //2 and //3 are unique identifiers for the target/master copy and the merge/branch copy file names).

:diffupdate (to remove leftover spacing issues)

:only (once you’re done reviewing all conflicts, this shows only the middle/merged file)
