That actually looks exactly like it should.  The order of the windows

Hm, you’re right. I just found the git-mergetool--lib script on my
system and it opens vimdiff with $LOCAL $MERGED $REMOTE. Thank you, that
opened my eyes enough to clarify my question:

The conflict markers don't seem very useful in the context of a merge
tool. I would prefer to see two windows in vimdiff with each side of the
conflict, respectively. Something like:

vimdiff $MERGED-left-hand-conflicts $MERGED-right-hand-conflicts

Is that possible with Git -- or does anyone know of external tools to
help with such a workflow?
