The easiest way to produce a merge conflict, is to change the same line differently in two branches and try to merge them. I added a fast-import file to demonstrate this for you.
$ git init foo $ cd foo $ git fast-import <../conflict-merge.fi $ git reset --hard master $ git merge branch
this gets you into the conflict, probably the usual style. Which looks in liek this on the terminal:
@@@ -2,7 -2,7 +2,11 @@@ Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetu
Sed feugiat nisl eget efficitur ultrices.
Nunc cursus metus rutrum, mollis lorem vitae, hendrerit mi.
Aenean vestibulum ante ac libero venenatis, non hendrerit orci pharetra.
++<<<<<<< HEAD
+Proin bibendum purus ut est tristique, non pharetra dui consectetur.
++=======
+ Proin placerat leo malesuada lacinia lobortis.
++>>>>>>> branch
Pellentesque aliquam libero et nisi scelerisque commodo.
Quisque id velit sed magna molestie porttitor.
Vivamus sed urna in risus molestie ultricies.
and this in git gui: https://kgab.selfhost.eu/s/gHHaQqowGp7mXEb
Git gui removes the '++' in front of the marker lines. It therefor already 'changes' the 'diff'. Though git-apply cannot handle such 'diffs' anyway.
To get the diff3 style do:
$ git merge --abort $ git -c merge.conflictStyle=diff3 merge branch
This is how it looks in the terminal now:
@@@ -2,7 -2,7 +2,13 @@@ Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetu
Sed feugiat nisl eget efficitur ultrices.
Nunc cursus metus rutrum, mollis lorem vitae, hendrerit mi.
Aenean vestibulum ante ac libero venenatis, non hendrerit orci pharetra.
++<<<<<<< HEAD
+Proin bibendum purus ut est tristique, non pharetra dui consectetur.
++||||||| merged common ancestors
++Proin in felis eu elit suscipit rhoncus vel ut metus.
++=======
+ Proin placerat leo malesuada lacinia lobortis.
++>>>>>>> branch
Pellentesque aliquam libero et nisi scelerisque commodo.
Quisque id velit sed magna molestie porttitor.
Vivamus sed urna in risus molestie ultricies.
As you can see, there is not the usual 'I removed this, and added that' experience, everything is 'added'. Thus I inverted the pre-image to '--'. Here is how it looks in the gui: https://kgab.selfhost.eu/s/5c8Tosra7WRfjwJ

I actually only need to detect the pre-image lines, which starts with the ||| conflict-marker and ends with the === conflict-marker, instead of all possible states.
