Question

I’m doing some rails dev on mac osx. I have an alias for vim that calls the version in homebrew

vim: aliased to /usr/local/Cellar/vim/7.3.266/bin/vim

But if I execute say git rebase -i [sha] then it will call a different vim from the one that’s aliased. It’s calling /usr/bin/vim which is NOT what I want.

How do I fix this?

You can use:

git  config --global core.editor  /usr/local/Cellar/vim/7.3.266/bin/vim
