Merging files in Sublime with Sublimerge via command line

I'm trying to find a better merge file option and wanted to try out Sublime as of my work is done using it. so I installed Sublimerge and now am stuck. I know I can compare two already open files or compare via the Sidebar but what I want to do is fire it off via the command line so I can kick it off from our source control program like I can with every other merge tool I've seen. Does anyone know the command line format to do this?

N.B. - I've long since given up trying to use sublime to handle merges and instead switched to other tools to handle this. Therefore I've never felt I can accept any answer as I'm not checking them to see if they work in the way I'd want, or indeed whether they work at all.
