From: Junio C Hamano Date: Mon, 03 Jul 2006 02:47:55 GMT Subject: [RFC/PATCH] consistently try VISUAL, EDITOR and vi in this order. Message-ID: <7vmzbrv1yc.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> git grep -e VISUAL -e EDITOR revealed this inconsistency. All other commands seem to check VISUAL and then EDITOR as they should. --- diff --git a/git-send-email.perl b/git-send-email.perl index c5d9e73..7b81962 100755 --- a/git-send-email.perl +++ b/git-send-email.perl @@ -222,8 +256,7 @@ GIT: for the patch you are writing.
