How to make Beyond Compare work within Eclipse with Git?

This thread suggests:

• tinkering the the git config

  Eclipse Preferences, under Team -> Git -> Configuration, it points to a .gitconfig file. (and declare beyond compare as documented)

The integration of Beyond Compare and Eclipse itself is based on a plugin, so a direct integration between BC and EGit might not be possible directly through Eclipse.
