+@subsection Resolving conflicts
+
+
+Occasionally an update may result in conflicts -- this happens
+when you and somebody else have modified the same part of the same
+file and git cannot figure out how to merge the two versions
+together. When this happens, you must manually merge the two
+versions.
+
+If you need some documentation to understand and resolve
+conflicts, see paragraphs @emph{How conflicts are presented} and
+@emph{How to resolve conflicts} in @command{git merge} man page.
+
+If all else fails, you can follow the instructions in
+@ref{Reverting all local changes}. Be aware that this eliminates
+any changes you have made!
