Hmm, I do like the idea of reusing the diff orderFile, but a mechanism for sorting arbitrary inputs based on the orderFile isn't currently exposed in a way that mergetool could use it.
Instead of using 'git ls-files -u | sed ... | sort -u' you could use git diff-files --name-status -O... | sed -ne '/^U/s/^..//p'
But, that sort is honestly kinda crude. It can't implement the interesting case where we want bar.h to sort before bar.c but not foo.h. If we did the sort option, we could have both.
I don't think that we need a new filter when the diff machinery is capable of re-ordering files. We should enhance the diff machinery instead.
