Personally, I didn't like having to screw around with environment variables
directly to get vimdiff to work. So I did the following:

1) Made a simple diff script gitvimdiff.sh:

#!/bin/env sh
vimdiff "$2" "$5"

2) git config --global diff.external ~/path/to/gitvimdiff.sh
3) git config --global pager.diff ""

Now when I run git-diff it uses vimdiff (hooray) and automatically turns the
pager off for me! Now only if I could get meld to work under cygwin.
