In git-difftool.txt, it says
'git difftool' falls back to 'git mergetool' config variables when the

However, when `diff.guitool` is missing, it doesn't fallback to
anything. Make git-difftool fallback to `merge.guitool` when `diff.guitool` is
missing.
Is this a well-defined operation?
I mean, we're assuming here that a 3-way gui merge tool (that probably
expects 3 input pathnames and maybe a 4th merge-result pathname (and
associated titles and etc)) can function sanely when only given the
pair that a diff would have.
That is, we're assuming that the selected merge tool has a 2-way diff
mode and that the command line args for the 2- and 3-way views are
compatible.
Just a thought
