documented in the darcs manual?

I just had a problem where a darcs newbie that I am working with tried running
"darcs resolve" because he saw that he had a conflict.  That wasn't what he
meant to do!

That is actually the correct response. When a conflict occurs in a repository no changes are made to the working copy. darcs resolve marks up the file that had conflicts with the potential conflicting versions like so:

vvvvvvvvvv
This is one possibility for the conflict.
----------
This is another possibility for the conflict.
^^^^^^^^^^

This allows you to see you to pick and choose the pieces of the possibilities that make the most sense for the changes that were meant by each patch. Then you can record your merged version as a new patch.
