I just tested this on Mac OS X with the latest version of
p4merge.  It worked great.

	$ git config difftool.p4merge.path \
	  /Applications/p4merge.app/Contents/MacOS/p4merge

	$ git difftool -t p4merge HEAD^

P.S.  thanks for the patch, Scott.

Sorry I haven't gotten around to forking progit yet
but we did at least get Disney Animation to go with
git + github =)

http://github.com/wdas/ptex

(there's only some headers up there right now,
 but we'll have more to share soon)


Have fun,
