* mergetool--lib: Allow custom commands to override built-insDavid Aguilar2012-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow users to override the default commands provided by the mergetools/* scriptlets. Users occasionally run into problems where they expect to be able to override the built-in tool names. The documentation does not explicitly mention that built-ins cannot be overridden, so it's easy to assume that it should work. Lift this restriction so that built-in tools are handled the same way as user-configured tools. Add tests to guarantee this behavior. A nice benefit of this change is that it protects users from having future versions of git trump their custom configuration with a new built-in tool.

* mergetool--lib: Refactor tools into separate filesDavid Aguilar2011-08-19
Individual merge tools are now defined in a mergetools/$tool file which is sourced at runtime. The individual files are installed into $(git --exec-path)/mergetools/. New tools can be added by creating a new file instead of editing the git-mergetool--lib.sh scriptlet. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/134906/focus=135006 Signed-off-by: David Aguilar <davvid@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
