Is it possible to tell how a person resolved conflicts when merging two branches? Mine or Theirs?

Paul Anderson March 14, 2018

I need to figure out if there is a way to determine which file was used to resolve a conflict.  Mine or theirs during a merge.   We have that one guy who always uses theirs to merge and stomps on everyone else's changes.  Looking back through the history I can see that there was a conflict but cant seem to find which branch he used to resolve the conflict.

Hi Paul,

There's no indication of what branch was used from a DVCS perspective that I'm aware of at the moment. The only workaround I can think of is to checkout the mangled branch and in another copy of the repo checkout one of the two merged branches and compare them using your favorite visual diff tool.
