When I was doing a rebase on one of my branches, I had conflicts in the paket.lock and app.config files in a few of my projects. When I ran paket.exe install to cleanup the lock file and app.configs, I was presented with this error.

Paket failed with:
    Name cannot begin with the '<' character, hexadecimal value 0x3C. Line 9, position 2.

In my case it was pretty easy to figure out where the problem was, but I think it would be nice to know which file it failed on.

Throwing some garbage like

<<<<<<< HEAD

in the middle of an app.config simulates it pretty quickly.
