Talking about my problems using git via Emacs and VC.  When I tried
this, a few years ago, something gave me three side-by-side windows
and I had no idea what to do with them, so I had to bail out.

What does Ediff mode do?  Does it make three windows
side by side?

I looked at the doc strings of ediff-mode and ediff.  They give a few
secondary details but they don't even start to answer the questions,
"What is this good for?  What does it do?"  So I can't tell whether it
would make three windows.

Regardless of my git issues, those doc strings ought to be improved.
Would someone like to do it?
