Morphology
The phrase literally combines 'resolve' (to settle or solve) with 'conflicts' (disagreements), so a learner who knows both words can infer it means to settle or resolve disagreements. Although the example is domain-specific (version control), the core compositional meaning is transparent and cross-linguistically familiar, so it should be understandable to a B1 learner.
Etymology
Resolve conflicts may come from the image of two people pulling on a rope or a knot; to resolve is to untie the knot so the pulling stops and the conflicts end. So, it means 'to settle a disagreement by finding a solution'.
