Well, the xx part is taken because it uses xxdiff, so I thought
perhaps we can have trivial git wrappers for many popular mergers. Ie:
git-wiggle, git-sdiff.

We could have a single command with a 'strategy' parameter, say

     git-mergehelper -s [xxdiff|sdiff|wiggle] path/to/file

but separate commands are easier for prototyping IMVHO.
