Hm, what do you mean by "the git way" ? I'm talking about learning
the data model which git uses internally to make that data model work
for you, not learning some particular workflow that someone else
thinks is great.

What do you want?

That's true, but sometimes it's better to fix things a different way.

Anyway, how does the tool matter for "slow" large changes? I guess
it's also about how you can resolve conflicts and not about how they
happen.

I think the git command doesn't enforce any particular conflict
resolution tool, so you can use what you would have used with
other VCSes, assuming that it's a standalone utility. (Maybe this
is the problem?)


Kind regards
