git - conflict

I am trying to understand how git work with conflicts

i tried this test.

created a directory called test
cd test
git init
vi newfile (add "First")
git add .
git commit -m "first commit"
git checkout -b bri
switched to bri branch from master.
vi newfile(add "second" in the first line)
git commit -m "second commit")

Now when i tried to merge it didn't complain any conflicts. its updated the latest information on the first line.  This is not what i was expecting . I wanted to see the conflict information before it merges.

Hi linuxperson;

The Git Documentation and some resources can be found [here]. If you look at the link for Git Branching about the third link page in you will see information on using conflict.

In github site i do see a file with different symbol. It should be directory. How do i push my local directory to this github origin.  If you see pillar its look like a file but should be a directory with files. I am unable to click on the directory.

I want to make sure both should get approval from each other before commit.
