- jlgreco 14y agoNo, just 'vim' itself is fine, if you have a 'vim' in your PATH. https://github.com/search?q=%27editor+%3D%27++extension%3A.gitconfig&type=Code&ref=searchresults https://github.com/search?q=%27editor+%3D%27++extension%3A.g... What I usually do is maintain a set of symlinks in ~/bin/ (which is in my PATH) if they are not already in my PATH (or if I want them to override something else in my PATH, like HEAD builds of various things on occasion), and only use aliases to set default arguments (`ls --color=auto` for example).
- johncoltrane 14y agoNo. On Mac OS X, using `vim` generally causes this error: error: There was a problem with the editor 'vi' The full path must be used to get rid of it.
