I used "git rebase -i" to combine several commits into
one for the first time recently. This was in ubuntu.
It threw me for a while because the first editor it
brought up was nano (to edit the list of commits) and
then vi (to edit the commit messages). Not being
familiar with either, the way to save and exit took me
quite a few minutes to work out.
It it possible to configure git to use another editor,
like the ubuntu default, gedit, for these?
I didn't know you were running Ubuntu now! Cool.
Yes, I used your .iso file. Worked great! Thanks.
It's running under Sun's VirtualBox. It's OK, but
things Vista have slowed up some as the paging rate
goes quite high at times in my 2Gbyte laptop. An
upgrade to 4Gbyte would help a lot, I think.
Try this command:
$ git config --global core.editor gedit
OK, I've added it. I'll see what happens next time.
If that doesn't work I'll try Graham's suggestions.
Thanks both.
Trevor
