Use IntelliJ or WebStorm as git mergetool with SourceTree

Use IntelliJ or WebStorm as git mergetool

Configure Sourcetree

The merge tool that ships with JetBrain's IntelliJ IDEA or WebStorm is really awesome and way better than FileMerge. It is quite simple to configure SourceTree to use it as the default mergetool:
