Option D is the best approach for resolving the merge conflicts with minimal development effort. Here's how it works: Stop Pull from Main: By stopping the pull from the main branch to the feature branch, the developer can prevent the introduction of new conflicts while they are resolving the existing ones. Rebase the Feature Branch: After stopping the pull, the developer can rebase the feature branch onto the main branch. This essentially replays the feature branch's changes on top of the main branch's latest changes. This allows the developer to resolve conflicts one commit at a time, addressing any conflicts that arise from the difference between the feature branch and the main branch.

Most people say D, but option D does not cover the fixing of conflict, but option C at lease says "fix the conflicts" so this is a complete answer, no?

D is the correct answer.

How on earth non-visualize way is easier? And I've never seen a rebase that happened commit-by-commit! Resolving the merge should happened in one go, merge or rebase. just rebase appear(!) more isolated. (which in practice it's not!). Also rebase is cleaner but the effort is even more since there is a level of isolation! The only point here is visualizing which makes it easier.

D. Stop the pull from the main branch to the feature branch. Rebase the feature branch from the main branch: Rebasing the feature branch from the main branch is an effective way to resolve merge conflicts. This approach involves updating the feature branch with the latest changes from the main branch and then applying the feature branch's changes on top of it. Rebasing can simplify the process of resolving conflicts and is generally less effort-intensive compared to creating new branches and transferring changes. C. Use the Commit Visualizer view to compare the commits when a feature was added. Fix the merge conflicts: Using tools like Commit Visualizer to understand the changes and conflicts can be helpful. However, this step alone doesn’t resolve the conflicts. The developer still needs to manually resolve the conflicts in the code.

D D. Stop the pull from the main branch to the feature branch. Rebase the feature branch from the main branch.

D. Stop the pull from the main branch to the feature branch. Rebase the feature branch from the main branch.

Rebasing the feature branch from the main branch would apply the changes from the main branch directly onto the feature branch, effectively bringing it up to date. This would resolve the conflicts in a way that minimizes manual effort.

Using the git rebase command to rebase a repository changes the history of a repository, which might cause commits to appear out of order. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codecommit/latest/userguide/how-to-view-commit-details.html

Comparing commits in the Commit Visualizer view can provide a clear overview of the changes made over time and aid in understanding the context of the conflicts. This approach can help you pinpoint where conflicts arose and assist you in making informed decisions about how to resolve them.

Answer D won't fix the problem
