I like the approach this is taking. Thank you. I have one small note:

I think this should use "=" instead of "==" here.

It might also make sense to wrap a basename call around it so that users can set their own mergetool.tortoisemerge.path

basename="$(basename "$merge_tool_path" .exe)" if test "$basename" = "tortoisegitmerge" ...
