#   git difftool <git diff arguments>
#

# find top level of git project
dir=$PWD
until [ -e "$dir/.git" ]; do
  if [ "$dir" == "/" ]; then
    echo "Not a git repository" >&2
    exit 1;
  fi
  dir=`dirname "$dir"`
done

# open fresh FileMerge and wait for terminations to issues with git temp files
open -a FileMerge -n -W --args -left "$1" -right "$2" -merge "$dir" ${@:2}
