(Not sure, and too lazy to grab the archives.) Also, in the design process of "git-sequencer" we (at least my mentors and I) discussed about doing this ("edit" vs "pause"), too, but it is always bad to change behavior many people are used, too. But sequencer instructions support options. So this could be solved as an option for "edit", e.g. "edit --no-commit" (or "edit -n"). So I'm writing this on my TODO list for the time after sequencer is merged into git... Regards, Stephan -- Stephan Beyer , PGP 0x6EDDD207FCC5040F
