Subject: [PATCH 2/2] difftool: don't assume that default sh is sane
Date: Sat, 19 Jul 2014 17:35:17 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1405787717-30476-2-git-send-email-charles@hashpling.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1405787717-30476-1-git-send-email-charles@hashpling.org>

From: Charles Bailey <cbailey32@bloomberg.net>

git-difftool used to create a command list script containing $( ... )
and explicitly call "sh -c" with this list.

Instead, allow mergetool --tool-help to take a mode parameter and call
mergetool directly to invoke the show_tool_help function. This mode
parameter is intented for use solely by difftool.

Signed-off-by: Charles Bailey <cbailey32@bloomberg.net>

Another issue for Solaris. Originally I had a fix for this that
substituted "@SHELL_PATH@" even inside perl scripts but I felt that
having an interface for show_tool_help was a little neater all round but
I welcome alternative views.
