I am not Dscho (nor J6t) but the last time I asked him about some other
"This makes it work better on Windows" patch, the conclusion was "only
Windows has issues and msysgit does not use 'maint'", which I agreed to be
a sensible answer for an undermanned and still-on bleeding edge project
like msysgit.

I don't mind a trivial backport for only mergetool part to the tip of
'master' (because difftool is not in master) that later makes me deal with
a small merge conflict when the refactoring topic hits master.  Or Dscho
can apply such a backport and carry it as a msysgit-only patch until my
'master' is updated with the refactoring topic (at which point the
tentative patch needs to be dropped).  Either would work fine with me.
