+[description]
+
+Sometimes you want to merge two commits, nut a merge conflict occurs that you currently don't want to resolve. 
+In these situations you can abort the merge to merge later. Use
+    git merge --abort
+when you are in a merge process.
+
+Try to merge both commits and abort the merge afterwards.
+
