GIT: Setting TextPad as Default Editor
Posted: Tue Feb 17, 2015 12:05 am
Any GIT users here?
I just started using GIT as a version control system.
I'd like to specify TextPad as the default editor instead of emacs, vi, or vim (I am using a Windows 7 computer.)
Is it simply a matter of executing the following command?
(assuming textpad.exe is the executable that makes TextPad work.)
Or do I also have to do something with Windows path variables and/or the Registry?
Anybody in these forums using TextPad with GIT? I would like to learn how you did it.
Any help is appreciated.
