conflict-marker.vim

Highlight, jump and resolve conflict markers quickly.

conflict-marker.vim is Vim plugin for developers fighting against conflicts. All features are available if and only if an opened buffer contains a conflict marker.

conflict-marker.vim does:

• highlight conflict markers.
• jump among conflict markers.
• jump within conflict block; beginning, separator and end of the block.
• resolve conflict with various strategies; theirs, ours, none and both strategies.
• support both diff2 (Git default) and diff3 conflict styles.

This plugin tries to define some mappings if a conflict marker is detected. If you don't want to use default mappings, set g:conflict_marker_enable_mappings to 0.

Conflict Markers

Conflict markers can be customized using the following options:

" Default values
let g:conflict_marker_begin = '^<<<<<<< \@='
let g:conflict_marker_common_ancestors = '^||||||| .*$'
let g:conflict_marker_separator = '^=======$'
let g:conflict_marker_end   = '^>>>>>>> \@='

Highlight Conflict Markers

Conflict markers are highlighted by default. Use the following option to disable highlighting:

let g:conflict_marker_enable_highlight = 0

Each conflict marker and conflict part is associated to a specific syntax group:

By default, ConflictMarkerBegin, ConflictMarkerSeparator, ConflictMarkerCommonAncestors and ConflictMarkerEnd are linked to the Error syntax group. To link them to another syntax group, use the following option:

" Default value
let g:conflict_marker_highlight_group = 'Error'

ConflictMarkerOurs, ConflictMarkerTheirs, and ConflictMarkerCommonAncestors are not linked to any syntax group by default, and can be used to customize the highlight of the ours and theirs parts of the conflict.

To use a specific highlight for each marker, disable the default highlight group, and define your own highlights for each syntax group.

Example:

" disable the default highlight group
let g:conflict_marker_highlight_group = ''

" Include text after begin and end markers
let g:conflict_marker_begin = '^<<<<<<< .*$'
let g:conflict_marker_end   = '^>>>>>>> .*$'

highlight ConflictMarkerBegin guibg=#2f7366
highlight ConflictMarkerOurs guibg=#2e5049
highlight ConflictMarkerTheirs guibg=#344f69
highlight ConflictMarkerEnd guibg=#2f628e
highlight ConflictMarkerCommonAncestorsHunk guibg=#754a81

Jump among Conflict Markers

[x and ]x mappings are defined as default. Use the following option to disable them:

let g:conflict_marker_enable_mappings = 0

Jump within a Conflict Marker

This feature uses matchit.vim, which is bundled in Vim (macros/matchit.vim). % mapping is extended by matchit.vim. Use the following option to disable this feature:

let g:conflict_marker_enable_matchit = 0

Resolve a Conflict with Various Strategies

This plugin defines mappings as default: ct for theirs, co for ours, cn for none and cb for both. Use the following option to disable mappings:

let g:conflict_marker_enable_mappings = 0
