difftool: display the number of files in the diff queue in the prompt
When --prompt option is set, git-difftool displays a prompt for each
modified file to be viewed in an external diff program. At that
point, it could be useful to display a counter and the total number
of files in the diff queue.
Below is the current difftool prompt for the first of 5 modified files:
Viewing: 'diff.c'
Launch 'vimdiff' [Y/n]:
Consider the modified prompt:
Viewing (1/5): 'diff.c'
Launch 'vimdiff' [Y/n]:
The current GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF mechanism does not tell the number of
paths in the diff queue nor the current counter. To make this
"counter/total" info available for GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF programs
without breaking existing ones by doing the following:
- Keep track of the number of paths shown so far in diff_options;
- Export two new environment variables from run_external_diff() to
show the total number of paths (from diff_queue_struct) and the
current value of the counter (from diff_options); and
- Update git-difftool--helper to use these two environment variables.
