How often do you have to resolve merge conflicts? (feddit.de)

Recently I've experienced a significant increase in merge conflicts at the company I'm currently working at (we hired a couple of junior data scientists and some are not that familiar with git)

Even though those merge conflicts can be a little tedious to resolve, I realized that I personally started to enjoy it - especially using fugitive. Haven't had many conflicts in a while, so almost forgot about Gdiffsplit and how awesome that plugin is...

Now I'm wondering, how often do you have to resolve (more or less complex) merge conflicts?

Quite often, mostly because the project is rather huddled and some devs refuse to use proper tools and often cause unwanted whitespace changes.

Yes, we did talk about it, but if the principal architect thinks that autoformat is at least as evil as proper documentation, it just won't happen for him.
