let's imagine you're resolving this merge conflict (in screenshot).
You've forgotten which code comes from your current branch and which one comes from the "other" branch. How do you figure it out? Do you:
* remember what the "top" and "bottom" parts correspond to from past merge conflicts?
* remember what `HEAD` means?
* read the last line of the merge conflict?
* run something like `git show main` or `git diff mybranch..main` to see the diff?
* something else?
@b0rk I think I know intuitively what "top" and "bottom" mean (at least in the diff3 format), even though if someone asked me, answering would require more thought. In the process of comparing to the middle revision, I'll think things like "oh, upstream did this" without really thinking about which one is upstream.
@b0rk In this thread I keep seeing "they're flipped in rebase", but I think it's actually the rebase command that's backwards. You give merge the revision with the changes you want to bring in, but you give rebase the revision you want to add your changes to.
