When you have unstaged changes git diff sends the local > filename as the 2nd argument so I changed the vim command to "wincmd > r" so that vim places the cursor on the right hand side. Well, in "wincmd l" "l" doesn't mean "left", it doesn't mean "put the cursor into the left window", it just moves the cursor into the next right window. So "wincmd r" doesn't mean "put the cursor into the right window", but "rotate the window" (see :help ctrl-w_r). So with "wincmd r" the local file would be moved to the left side and the index file to the right side, still containing the cursor. Not what we want. With "wincmd l" the local file would stay on the right side, the index file on the left side, but the cursor would move from the left to the right side. Now we can edit the local file. > > You have deleted all the '-' chars from git-command, but when using it as the > > name I think it's the preferred method, only when used as command then without > > slash. > > I was wondering about that.

Hmm, I don't think it makes a difference, whether it's a builtin or not. git-diff only exists behind the scenes, invoking it as "git-diff" doesn't work anymore with default settings. On the other hand, I can also invoke "git difftool" without the slash, git can find it. The same way I can for example call "git svn", which also isn't a builtin.
