Git cannot perform pull operations if merge conflicts are addressed in your branch.
Pull is not possible because you have unmerged files i.e. there are conflicts from a previous merge attempt that have not yet been resolved. to resolve this first you need to resolve the merge conflict and commit your changes after that take the pull.
Check the Current Status
You will see a list of files that are unmerged and causing conflicts.
git status- Open and Resolve Conflicts
Stage the Resolved files
git add .Commit the merge
git commitNow can take pull
git pull

Abort the merge and pull fresh
If you don’t need the current changes or are okay to reapply them later:
git merge --abort # cancel the ongoing merge
git stash # temporarily save your local changes
git pull # get latest changes from remote
git stash pop # reapply your saved changes
Safest way if you just want a clean pull without losing your work.

Discard local changes completely
If you don’t care about local edits and just want the remote version:
git reset --hard HEAD
git pull
This will erase all uncommitted local changes , use only if you’re sure.

Commit first, then pull
If you have local changes that you want to keep:
git add .
git commit -m "Saving my local changes"
git pull --rebase
This replays your local commits on top of the latest remote branch, avoiding messy merges.
