Merge Conflict - diff3 Marker Style With Base Section
The same conflict with `merge.conflictStyle=diff3`, which inserts the merge base between the two sides behind a row of pipes. Tools that split a conflict on `=======` alone silently fold the ancestor text into the ours side.

Expected to pass- Scenario
- Parse a conflict region that contains a ||||||| base section.
- Expected result
- Three sections are recovered, ours, base ('timeout: 30'), theirs, and the base text is not attributed to either side.
What is a .txt file?
TXT is a plain-text file containing unformatted character data with no styling or structure beyond line breaks. Its interpretation depends on character encoding, most commonly UTF-8, and on line-ending convention. It is the most universal and portable text container.
How to use this file
Use an example TXT to test encoding detection, line-ending (LF versus CRLF) handling, and any tool that reads or streams raw text input.
How to use this file for testing
“Merge Conflict - diff3 Marker Style With Base Section” is a deterministic Testaroo fixture for Error handling, Visual diff / regression, Code parsing. Deliberately corrupt and invalid files, clearly labelled, for testing how your tool fails.
Documented properties for this file: seed 20260807 · UTF-8 · LF. Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.
Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such, expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.
Diff and patch fixtures name their target paths and the exact edge case they exercise, rename, mode change, binary hunk, CRLF↔LF, or missing trailing newline. Apply or render them against the documented before-state; every author, path, and hash is fictional.

- diffCombined Diff - diff --cc With Two ParentsWhat `git show` prints for a merge commit: a `diff --cc` header, an index line naming three blobs, `@@@` hunk markers, and two prefix columns instead of one. The `++` line is the giveaway a reviewer is looking for: content that appears in the merge result but in neither parent.
- diffCombined Diff - Octopus Merge With Three ParentsAn octopus merge, so the hunk marker grows to `@@@@` and every line carries three prefix columns. Any parser that hard-codes `@@@` or assumes two columns reads the third column as the first character of the line's content.
- diffCombined Diff - Per-Parent mode LineWhen the file mode differs between the parents and the merge result, a combined diff adds a `mode a,b..result` line below the index line: a comma-separated shape that appears nowhere else in git's output. Parsers written for the single-parent `old mode`/`new mode` pair do not recognise it.
- txtMerge Conflict - Nested Markers From a Conflicted ResolutionSomeone committed a file that still contained conflict markers, and merging that commit produced markers inside markers. Region matchers that pair the first `<<<<<<<` with the first `=======` split this file in the wrong place and produce two overlapping regions that cannot both be resolved.
- mdMerge Conflict - Real Region Beside Marker LookalikesDocumentation about merge conflicts that quotes the markers inside a fenced code block, and then genuinely conflicts further down. A pre-commit hook that greps for `^<<<<<<<` reports two hits and blocks a clean commit; one that understands Markdown fences reports the one that matters.
- txtMerge Conflict - Three Regions in One FileOne file left with three independent unresolved regions and clean text between them, which is what a real deployment-values merge looks like. Editors that jump to 'the next conflict' and resolvers that report a boolean rather than a count both get exercised here.
