Seriously... if you've ever used git much, in some situations it
gives user-oriented advice like "if you want to do foo, you might want
to use comand x y z ...", and it's often a _really_ useful hint, even
if you've used git for a while (and the location of such advice is
tastefully chosen so that it's not annoying for experienced users).
One can figure out what the current vc-next-action conflict error
messages mean with a bit of thought, but they seem sort of
user-hostile, almost designed to cause one's eyes to glaze over...
