[PATCH v5 3/3] Retire the scripted difftool

From
Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
Date
Jan 17, 2017, 15:55 UTC
Message-ID
<8238bba389c031b091a37396fed43cac94d944e7.1484668473.git.johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1484668473.git.johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

It served its purpose, but now we have a builtin difftool. Time for the Perl script to enjoy Florida.
