Description

It works like this (updated to fix bug):

git diff --name-only --diff-filter=U --relative -z |
    xargs -0r $(git var GIT_EDITOR) && \
    git diff --check . && \
    git add . && \
    git continue

I have an approximation of it as an alias

Research direction

Start with the command sequence in the issue and compare it with the approximation in .config/git/config from the linked alias. Locate the repository's command entry point and existing command tests, then verify that done means resolving unmerged files, passing git diff --check, staging changes, and continuing the operation.
