I am trying to push new changes, but I have a conflicted file. After trying to push, I get the following error:

Merge the remote changes (e.g. 'git pull') before pushing again.  See the
'Note about fast-forwards' section of 'git push --help' for details.

Ok, so we need to use git pull. I try to use git pull and then I get this error:

error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge:
    db/profile_edit.php
Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can merge.

But, when I try to commit, I go back to the first error. What should I do? The changes on the remote repo are newer than the ones on my local machine. So, how do I open it up with a diff tool and make the changes and then tell git that I have made changes so it will let me push changes?

git github
