My first git merge went sideways and I almost lost 3 days of work
I was building a simple recipe site for my mom last week and tried to merge my feature branch into main using VS Code's built-in tools. The merge said it succeeded, but then my index.html just showed random fragments of my CSS and the whole project stopped loading. Has anyone else had a merge look fine but break the files, and what's the safest way for a beginner to fix that without panicking?
