If you want to use Xcode's FileMerge as your git mergetool, this is how you set it up.
# Tell system when Xcode utilities live:
sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
# Set "opendiff" as the default mergetool globally:
git config --global merge.tool opendiff

These instructions work for the Raspberry Pi running Raspbian (hard float) and create a hardware optimized version of NodeJS for the Raspberry PI, (and include a working install and NPM!!!):

  1. Install Raspbian - http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads

  2. Install the necessary dependecies:

sudo apt-get install git-core build-essential

(If you just installed git then you need to administer your git identity first, else adding the patches below will fail!!!)
