fix(ci): handle missing MERGE_HEAD in staging conflict check#7273
Conversation
When staging already contains main (Already up to date), git merge --no-commit --no-ff succeeds without creating a MERGE_HEAD. The subsequent git merge --abort then fails with exit code 128. Fall back to git reset --hard HEAD when merge --abort fails.
