How to abort the whole git stash process if a merge conflict has occurred in Git?

Originally posted here!

When popping out commits using the git stash pop command, you will have some merge conflicts sometimes, you can move to resolve those conflicts or abort the whole process.

To abort the whole process when a merge conflict has occurred during the git stash pop process is to use the,

# Stop Git stash on merge conflicts
git reset --merge
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

command.

Feel free to share if you found this useful 😃.
