Reading this function it doesn't look like the variable $merge_tool is
actually used, only the first parameter which should be the same
thing. Also, TOOL_MODE is used and is important so should probably be
documented here instead.

I just wanted to double check that we supported finding tools in the
path with merge.$tool.path unset (it should just work), so I had a
quick play and got some really wierd results. Please tell me if just
sourcing git-mergetool--lib isn't just going to work.

I'm not quite sure what's going on here.

I'm not sure why, but from a style point of view, this seemed a bit
inconsistent from the rest of mergetool and grated with me a bit.

I think I'd prefer

if base_present; then
    present=false
else
    present=true
fi

or even:

present=$(base_present && echo true || echo false)

Really, really minor stlye point, though.
