Subject: [PATCH 1/2] gitk: Add braces around if expressions

Apparently this simplifies things for the parser/compiler and makes
it go slightly faster (since without the braces, it potentially has
to do two levels of substitutions rather than one).

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] gitk: Use git-diff-tree --cc for showing the diffs for
 merges

This replaces a lot of code that used the result from several 2-way
diffs to generate a combined diff for a merge.  Now we just use
git-diff-tree --cc and colorize the output a bit, which is a lot
simpler, and has the enormous advantage that if the diff doesn't
show quite what someone thinks it should show, I can deflect the
blame to someone else. :)
