+ git-difftool(1): fix formatting of --symlink description
I lost track of various discussions on "difftool" and its "symlink
so that the user can edit working tree files in the tool".
Would it be easiest if I send a new series incorporating
jk/difftool-dirr-diff-edit-fix and the proposed change to not overwrite
modified working tree files, built on top of t7800-modernize?
I am somewhat reluctant to rewind a topic that has been cooking in
'next' for over a week (the above says 19th). Rebuilding the
style-fixes on top of the above is fine---that topic is much
younger.

Sadly that's easier said than done, since it just introduces further
conflicts as jk/difftool-dir-diff-edit-fix doesn't include
da/difftool-fixes (now in master).
So I think the best thing may be to:
1) take only the middle patch from jk/t7800-modernize for now (which
fixes a test failure on Windows and shouldn't conflict with
anything else) and discard the other two patches there, to be
re-sent after other topics in flight graduate
2) add the "don't overwrite modified working tree files" patch built
on top of jk/difftool-dir-diff-edit-fix (presumably as a new
topic)
