My understanding is that we prefer "git help" instead of "man" when
providing hints.

That means we should suggest something like this instead:

        echo "Run 'git help mergetool--vimdiff' for details"
Thanks for pointing it out.  Yes, not all platforms we support our
documentation pages have the "man" command as the primary means to
get to them.
