git pull List all errors

I'm trying to do a git pull and I'm getting error: Your local changes to 'someDir/someFile' would be overwritten by merge. Aborting. this is fine since I need to check these changes and decide whether these need committed or not.

However doing the above, checking that file and committing/rolling back is laborious if I have to do it each time. Is there a way I can get git pull to list all merge errors rather than one each time?

Using git status -vs will show you a list of tracked changes.

If you want to store them to deal with after the pull you can use git stash, pull your repo, then git stash pop to restore the changes. Keep in mind there may be conflicts you have to resolve.

Another way of doing this is don't pull unless you are going to commit the changes you have made. Then just use git pull --rebase which will place your commit on top of the pulled commits.
