mergetool: run prompt only if guessed tool

felipec · gitster · commit 4ecc63d7f982 · 2014-04-22T12:49:46.000-07:00
It's annoying to see the prompt:

  Hit return to start merge resolution tool (foo):

Every time the user does 'git mergetool' even if the user already
configured 'foo' as the wanted tool.

Display this prompt only when the user hasn't explicitly configured a
tool.
