Im on windows 7 and using Github of Windows client I have 2 branches im am trying to merge with a deliberate conflict so i can see how Github handles them
When i merge the files it says it is done, nothing about finding any conflict, no errors
When i check the merge hasn't been done the 2 branches are still different, no extra data in the files to highlight that github found a problem.
Am i meant to see some kind of warning or be taken to a different screen or something when there is a conflict?
It turned out to an error in Github, the work around was to use Powershell and enter the command line equivalent to get the job done
