interpreted by the shell when it is used. Examples: `~/bin/vi`,
|
|
|
|
`$SOME_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE`, `"C:\Program Files\Vim\gvim.exe"
|
|
|
|
--nofork`. The order of preference is the `$GIT_EDITOR`
|
|
|
|
environment variable, then `core.editor` configuration, then
|
2012-03-31 10:42:34 +02:00

|
|
|

`$GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR` environment variable, then

|
2012-03-31 10:42:34 +02:00
