+mergetool.<tool>.cmd::
+       Specify the command to invoke the specified merge tool.  The
+       specified command is evaluated in shell with the following
+       variables available: 'BASE' is the name of a temporary file
+       containing the common base of the files to be merged, if available;
+       'LOCAL' is the name of a temporary file containing the contents of
+       the file on the current branch; 'REMOTE' is the name of a temporary
+       file containing the contents of the file from the branch being
+       merged; 'MERGED' contains the name of the file to which the merge
+       tool should write the results of a successful merge.
+
+mergetool.<tool>.trustExitCode::
+       For a custom merge command, specify whether the exit code of
+       the merge command can be used to determine whether the merge was
+       successful.  If this is not set to true then the merge target file
+       timestamp is checked and the merge assumed to have been successful
+       if the file has been updated, otherwise the user is prompted to
+       indicate the success of the merge.
+
+mergetool.keepBackup::
+       After performing a merge, the original file with conflict markers
+       can be saved as a file with a `.orig` extension.  If this variable
+       is set to `false` then this file is not preserved.  Defaults to
+       `true` (i.e. keep the backup files).

 pack.window::
        The size of the window used by linkgit:git-pack-objects[1] when no
