It's a minor point but for me, this looks a little more difficult to
follow than it needs to be.

Why do we need to hold on to 'ans' for so long? With the new prompt,
if we ever 'read ans' we always want to return from the
launch_merge_tool without doing anything else if we read "n". I think
it's easier to follow if we just change 'read ans' and leave the 'if
use_ext_cmd' clauses alone. Perhaps some people don't like the early
return, though?

E.g. (for discussion, untested):
