They may be > overriding the core.editor setting. Actually, EDITOR is set to Zile, so that should not be the problem: [tj@hostname ~]$ echo $EDITOR /usr/bin/zile [tj@hostname ~]$ echo $GIT_EDITOR [tj@hostname ~]$ BTW - would 'git config --global core.editor zile' or 'git config --global core.editor /usr/bin/zile' the right way to set it (both did not work)? I can start Zile simply with 'zile' on the command line. > -- > Cheers, > Ray Chuan > > On Fri, Apr 26, 2013 at 3:39 PM, Thorsten Jolitz wrote: >> >> Hi List, >> >> after experiencing one crash to many, I'm back to Standard Emacs >> (instead of Emacsserver/Emacsclient), thus using 'emacs' (instead of >> emacsclient) as git core editor triggers reading my huge init file and >> is way to slow. >> >> I would like to use Zile (a small Emacs clone) instead, and although >> otherwise it works alright on my system, it does not seem to work as git >> core editor. >> >> Is it possible to use 'git config --global core.editor zile'? >> >> -- >> cheers, >> Thorsten >> >> >> -- >> To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in >> the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org >> More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- cheers, Thorsten
