Subject: [PATCH] mergetool-lib: call vim in readonly mode for diffs
When [g]vimdiff is called for files which are opened already, the editor
complains about the existing swap file. But we do not want to write
anything when called from difftool. So, make difftool use "-R" for the
vim family. This
- prevents the use of a swap file and
- marks the buffers readonly.
