A subsequent patch will remove the i3merge and i2merge customisation from the classic infrastructure and config files. The main difference with the classic implementation is that mergetool is no invoked from the Transaction.push_patch() function rather than directly from IndexAndWorktree.merge().

I'm still not entirely sure where the check for stgit.autoimerge should be done. In the classic infrastructure, it is done in the merge function. With this patch, it is done in Transaction.push(). Should we push this even further to stgit.commands.push? My opinion is not since by having it in Transaction we get the advantage not listing the conflicts if the mergetool succeeds and we don't need to abort the transaction.
