Additionally, '$MERGED', '$LOCAL', '$REMOTE', > + and '$BASE' must be defined for use by the merge tool. Reading this function it doesn't look like the variable $merge_tool is actually used, only the first parameter which should be the same thing. Also, TOOL_MODE is used and is important so should probably be documented here instead. > diff --git a/git-mergetool--lib.sh b/git-mergetool--lib.sh > new file mode 100644 > index 0000000..c5db24e > --- /dev/null > +++ b/git-mergetool--lib.sh --- snip --- > +get_merge_tool_path () { > + # A merge tool has been set, so verify that it's valid. > + if ! valid_tool "$merge_tool"; then > + echo >&2 "Unknown merge tool $merge_tool" > + exit 1 > + fi > + if diff_mode; then > + merge_tool_path=$(git config difftool."$merge_tool".path) > + fi > + if test -z "$merge_tool_path"; then > + merge_tool_path=$(git config mergetool."$merge_tool".path) > + fi > + merge_tool_path="$(translate_merge_tool_path "$merge_tool" "$merge_tool_path")" > + if test -z "$merge_tool_cmd" && ! type "$merge_tool_path" > /dev/null 2>&1; then > + echo >&2 "The $TOOL_MODE tool $merge_tool is not available as '$merge_tool_path'" > + exit 1 > + fi > + echo "$merge_tool_path" > +} I just wanted to double check that we supported finding tools in the path with merge.$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. >From a non-X session: $ git config -l | grep 'merge\.\?tool'; get_merge_tool; get_merge_tool_path mergetool.p4merge.cmd=echo /"$BASE"/ /"$REMOTE"/ /"$LOCAL"/ /"$MERGED"/ merge tool candidates: kompare emerge vimdiff vimdiff vim >From an X session: mergetool.p4merge.cmd=echo /"$BASE"/ /"$REMOTE"/ /"$LOCAL"/ /"$MERGED"/ merge tool candidates: meld opendiff kdiff3 tkdiff xxdiff kompare gvimdiff diffuse ecmerge emerge vimdiff kdiff3 vim I'm not quite sure what's going on here. > diff --git a/git-mergetool.sh b/git-mergetool.sh > index cceebb7..efa31a2 100755 > --- a/git-mergetool.sh > +++ b/git-mergetool.sh --- big snip to: @@ merge_file () { > + present=false > + base_present && > + present=true 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. -- Charles Bailey http://ccgi.hashpling.plus.com/blog/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
