How to make difft the default `git log` tool?

[gunar]

Hi, difftastic looks... well, fantastic! I've just installed it and am playing around.

Now, basically I want difftastic to handle git show and git log -p automatically—besides just git diff.

• I've managed to get git diff to use difftastic with the following .gitconfig
• And it works with git log -p --ext-diff too
• But how can I get rid of the --ext-diff argument and always use difftastic by default?

Thanks in advance, Gunar

[diff]
  tool = difft
  external = difft
[difftool]
  prompt = false
[difftool "difftastic"]
  cmd = difft "$LOCAL" "$REMOTE"
[pager]
  difftool = true
# `git dft` is less to type than `git difftool`.
[alias]
  dft = difftool
