NAME
     git-mergetool--lib - Common git merge tool shell scriptlets

SYNOPSIS
     TOOL_MODE=(diff|merge) . "$(git --exec-path)/git-mergetool--lib"


DESCRIPTION
     This is not a command the end user would want to run. Ever.
     This documentation is meant for people who are studying the
     Porcelain-ish scripts and/or are writing new ones.

     The git-mergetool--lib scriptlet is designed to be sourced
     (using .) by other shell scripts to set up functions for
     working with git merge tools.

     Before sourcing git-mergetool--lib, your script must set
     TOOL_MODE to define the operation mode for the functions
     listed below. diff and merge are valid values.

FUNCTIONS
     get_merge_tool
         returns a merge tool.

     get_merge_tool_cmd
         returns the custom command for a merge tool.

     get_merge_tool_path
         returns the custom path for a merge tool.

     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.
