Highlight merge request conflicts displayed in diff
Within #232484 (closed) we've displayed merge request conflicts in diff. No frontend work has been performed yet, so now it looks like:
Problem to solve
Even though it uses Git's nomenclature, it's not very clear from the diff which changes are our and which already exist on the target branch
Proposal
- Highlight the conflicts blocks properly, probably the same way as on our Resolve conflicts page.
- Should support syntax highlighting (which our conflict editor does).
- Use different labels for marking conflicts instead of filename (
lib/wit.ex
on the screenshot example) - that would help a user to identify ours/theirs changes.
