'$GIT_MERGETOOL_GUI' may be set to 'true' to + search for the appropriate guitool. + +get_merge_tool_cmd:: + returns the custom command for a merge tool. + +get_merge_tool_path:: + returns the custom path for a merge tool. + +initialize_merge_tool:: + bring merge tool specific functions into scope so they can be used or + overridden. + +run_merge_tool:: + launches a merge tool given the tool name and a true/false + flag to indicate whether a merge base is present. + '$MERGED', '$LOCAL', '$REMOTE', and '$BASE' must be defined + for use by the merge tool. + +GIT +--- +Part of the linkgit:git[1] suite -- cgit v1.2.3
