I didn't in the easiest place, what process is started by git, and here
the command (I added the -Q)

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
cmd =Emacs -Q -f emerge-files-with-ancestor-command $LOCAL $MERGED $REMOTE
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

it's already much better, but I would like to use emacsclient instead,
still not working there though :(
