You may have a look at 'git mergetool'.

Sure.  But I still think that stuff that is in need of testers should 
still be published through the main repository in some side branches.  
Call it laziness, but I'm not that excited about having to configure an
 additional remote spec just to fetch the new proposed mcr/mrc stuff.  
If instead I get it for free along with updates to the master branch 
during my next 'git fetch' then I might be tempted to have a look.  So 
I'm not entirely in agreement with Zach on that front.  Asking for extra 
steps/efforts from potential testers doesn't usually work that well.
