Configure git editor

config-editor.md

Set which editor git should use.

This is the program that will open during a commit with no -m flag, a merge, a rebase, etc...

Select from any installed editor. Examples:

• emacs: emacs
• vi: vi or vim
• atom: atom --wait
• sublime: subl -n -w
• vscode: code --wait

Run: $ $ git config --global core.editor <YOUR_EDITOR>

hey @nnja, you can update your gist from my fork.

The vscode settings above are not enough. You need to edit the config directly and set the path to the application. See this stackoverflow. https://stackoverflow.com/a/35782566/2066978

@jdkahn you are right! vscode does not work with the above setting.

@nnja I think you need quotes around <YOUR_EDITOR> (at least I did for vscode):

$ git config --global core.editor "code --wait"

@mjlyons you're right thanks

;) Thank you guys

@jdkahn If you're installed vscode with an executable on the path, you don't have to set full path to vscode in git config.
