If you're working in the game industry, and your repository includes a lot of huge binary files that are mergable, perfoce is a godsend.

Also, p4merge is the best merging utility for any VCS, and I always install it alongside git if I work in Windows.

What makes it "the best" ? Honest question, i found it kludgy and settled for Kdiff3.

p4merge is indeed awesome. I work exclusively in Linux environments, but p4merge always gets installed. The experience has actually gotten better in that regard since git started supporting it straight as one of its 'mergetools'.
