I usually end up in using -m "my commit message" because of these 2 errors (basically terminal not recognized, I tried many different options to no avail) $ git commit -a Vim: Warning: Output is not to a terminal Vim: Warning: Input is not from a terminal > On the third hand, I fully expect git on Windows to be used only by GUI > wieners who cannot handle the command line, let alone a pager! ("WTF! How > do I go back to that dollar thingie? You know, where I type git-blabla?") maybe I'm stuck with windows at work, but I still use vim inside mingw. it would be nice to fix the pager issue... > > Since Tcl/Tk is available for MinGW, git-gui seems to be a way to go > there. I did not know about this... let me try... yes! not bad... it's working too, so your assumption was correct. thanks for the suggestion. -- Christian
