You need to merge more often.

Rebase. That's where the real trauma is.

Neither rebasing nor merging should cause trauma if everyone on the team takes a day or two to understand git

I consider myself above average in terms of Git know how. But I've come across situations using rebase where you're stuck resolving the same conflicts over several commits.

I still don't understand that part quite well.

This doesn't happen when you do a normal merge though. Making it easier to manage

You could try making enabling git's rerere functionality, which stands for "reuse recorded resolution"
