So it makes sense that the users of "git mergetool" get the same
benefits of the users of git-gui (with the proposed patch).
However, I'm trying to parse what git-gui is doing in
git-gui/lib/mergetool.tcl, and I see nothing similar to automerging.
Plus, the arguments passed to the tool are completely different:
"$merge_tool_path" -e -ub -wl \
-dl "Theirs File" -dr "Mine File" "$REMOTE" "$LOCAL" "$MERGED"]
"$merge_tool_path" -u -e -dl Local -dr Remote \
"$LOCAL" "$REMOTE" "$MERGED"
It's not even gramatically correct.
Cheers.
