After a rebase failed with a conflict, I could not continue the rebase using a Git GUI client. When performing
git rebase --continue
on command line (msysgit 1.7.4), it opened a text editor. After having closed it, Git continued. How can opening the editor be avoided?
When a rebase fails, you have to manually fix the file and then exec
git add filenameto signal that everything is OK. At this point,git rebase --continuewill continue the procedure without bothering you.To change the default editor git uses issue:
git config --global core.editor new_editor
