Description

When you're in a PR and you have conflicts and you click the 'Resolve Conflicts' button

Image

it brings up the merge editor with a notification type toast saying what is happening

Image

Problem is, that toast covers the 'complete merge' button. If you 'cancel' that notification type piece, you go right back out of the view.

You have to do some acrobatics of window resizing or splitpaning etc to get to the 'complete merge' button.

Research direction

Reproduce the conflict-resolution flow in VS Code by opening a pull request, selecting Resolve Conflicts, and observing the notification toast in the merge editor. Trace the merge editor and notification layout from the relevant extension entry points; done means the Complete Merge button remains accessible without cancelling the notification or resizing panes.
