Creating a conflict in git

Creating a conflicting of changes in the master branch.

Step1:Return to the master and create conflict

Return to the master branch and make the following changes:

git checkout master

FILE: lib/hello.html

<!-- Author: kwikl3arn (kwikl3arn@gmail.com) -->
<html>
  <head>
    <!-- no style -->
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1>Hello, World! Life is great!</h1>
  </body>
</html>

RUN:

git add lib/hello.html
git commit -m 'Life is great!'

(Warning: make sure you've used single-quotes to avoid problems with bash and the ! character)

Step2:View branches

RUN:

git hist --all

RESULT:

$ git hist --all
