Re: [PATCH 3/3] git-mergetool--lib: Make vimdiff retain the current directory

> When using difftool with vimdiff it can be unexpected that
> the current directory changes to the root of the project.
> Tell vim to chdir to the value of $GIT_PREFIX to fix this.
> 
> Care is taken to quote the variable so that vim expands it.
> This avoids problems when directory names contain spaces.
