Show HN: Character-Based Git Conflict Resolution

Hello HN!

I was always annoyed by conflicts that can be solved automatically, but still need human intervention. E.g. two people changing the same line, but at different, non-conflicting positions. So I searched for a character based patching library and found this nice article https://neil.fraser.name/writing/patch/ and its corresponding library https://github.com/google/diff-match-patch.

Parsing git conflicts, applying patches and showing some useful diffs in the UI helps me to solve 80% of my conflicts automatically. I hope it can help you too.

Happy Hacking!
