Every yes/no question in difftool/mergetool scripts has slightly
different form, and none of them is consistent with the form git
itself uses.

Make the form of all the questions consistent with the form used
by git.

Teach difftool to exit when a diff tool returns a non-zero exit
code when either --trust-exit-code is specified or
difftool.trustExitCode is true.

Forward exit codes from invoked diff tools to the caller when
--trust-exit-code is used.

An attempt to quit difftool by hitting Ctrl-D (EOF) at its prompt does

When --prompt option is set, git-difftool displays a prompt for each
modified file to be viewed in an external diff program.  At that
point, it could be useful to display a counter and the total number
of files in the diff queue.

Below is the current difftool prompt for the first of 5 modified files:

    Viewing: 'diff.c'
    Launch 'vimdiff' [Y/n]:

Consider the modified prompt:

    Viewing (1/5): 'diff.c'
    Launch 'vimdiff' [Y/n]:

The current GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF mechanism does not tell the number of
paths in the diff queue nor the current counter.  To make this
"counter/total" info available for GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF programs
without breaking existing ones by doing the following:

 - Keep track of the number of paths shown so far in diff_options;

 - Export two new environment variables from run_external_diff() to
   show the total number of paths (from diff_queue_struct) and the
   current value of the counter (from diff_options); and

 - Update git-difftool--helper to use these two environment variables.

When 'difftool' is called to compare a range of commits that modify
more than one file, it opens a separate instance of the diff tool for
each file that changed.

The new '--dir-diff' option copies all the modified files to a temporary
location and runs a directory diff on them in a single instance of the
diff tool.

This is useful if you forgot to restrict the diff to the paths you want
to see, or selecting precisely the ones you want is too much typing.

Currently, only configured diff helpers get the basename of the file
being compared. Tools specified with "git difftool -x" only get the
names of temporary files for the different versions.

Export BASE so that an external tool can read the name from the
environment. Rather than using a third argument, this avoids breaking
existing scripts which may somewhat carelessly be using "$@" rather than
"$1" "$2".

git-difftool requires difftool.<tool>.cmd configuration even when
tools use the standard "$diffcmd $from $to" form.  This teaches
git-difftool to run these tools in lieu of configuration by
allowing the command to be specified on the command line.

An undocumented mis-feature in git-difftool is that it allows you
to specify a default difftool by setting GIT_MERGE_TOOL.
This behavior was never documented and was included as an
oversight back when git-difftool was maintained outside of git.

git-mergetool never honored GIT_MERGE_TOOL so neither should
git-difftool.

The mergetool--lib scriplet was tricky to use because it relied upon
the existance of several global shell variables.  This removes more
global variables so that things are simpler for callers.

A side effect is that some variables are recomputed each time
run_merge_tool() is called, but the overhead for recomputing
them is justified by the simpler implementation.

Under Windows vimdiff and gvimdiff are not available as symbolic links,
but as batch files vimdiff.bat and gvimdiff.bat. These files weren't
found by 'type vimdiff' which led to the following error:

    The merge tool vimdiff is not available as 'vimdiff'

Even if they were found, it wouldn't work to invoke these batch files
from git-mergetool.

To solve this, use vim and gvim (vim.exe and gvim.exe) and pass the -d
command line switch over to them.

Some users have different mergetool and difftool settings, so teach
difftool to read config vars from the difftool.* namespace.  This allows
having distinct configurations for the diff and merge scenarios.

We don't want to force existing users to set new values for no reason
so difftool falls back to existing mergetool config variables when the
difftool equivalents are not defined.

git difftool listed some candidates for mergetools twice, depending on
the environment.

This slightly changes the behavior when both KDE_FULL_SESSION and
GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID are set at the same time; in such a case
meld is used in favor of kdiff3 (the old code favored kdiff3 in such a
case), but it should not matter in practice.

git-difftool worked for me on an up-to-date Gentoo Linux at home, but
didn't work on a somewhat older Ubuntu Linux 7.10 at work and failed
with the following error, where 'Makefile' was locally modified:

    trap: 244: SIGINT: bad trap
    external diff died, stopping at Makefile.

In 'man 1p trap' there is written:

    "The condition can be EXIT, 0 (equivalent to EXIT), or a signal
    specified using a symbolic name, without the SIG prefix, [...]"

    "Implementations may permit names with the SIG prefix or ignore case
    in signal names as an extension."

'git difftool' is a git command that allows you to compare and edit files
between revisions using common merge tools.  'git difftool' does what
'git mergetool' does but its use is for non-merge situations such as
when preparing commits or comparing changes against the index.
It uses the same configuration variables as 'git mergetool' and
provides the same command-line interface as 'git diff'.
