Description Jonathan Blandford

The compare mode uses color to distinguish between normal updates and conflicts.
 Those who are colorblind have a lot of trouble telling the two apart, making
conflict resolution a chore.  It would help a lot to have a different visual
indicator to show that a conflict occurred.

Compare icons

When you select a change (outgoing, incoming, conflicting) you will see a small icon at the top of the compare pane.
