I regularly use gitk to get an overview. Great tool.
But sometimes it shows me in the diff pane lines preceeded

with conflicts.
Look at the bottom summary of this message for a brief summary:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/15486/focus=15527
If you want to know more about how the multi-way diff is condensed, you
would find this message from Linus in the same thread illuminating:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/15486/focus=15600
(Ignore the bottom part where Linus complains about gitk output---the old
implementation in gitk has gone long time ago).
And also this one, again from Linus:

Junio, thanks. When I've found the time, I'll probably condense Linus'
explanations and submit a documentation patch. It's not explained
in the actual git docs, right?
