Tested against v1.7.12.4
Steps to reproduce:
A. cd $DIRTY_WORKING_COPY
B. git commit --patch --message $MESSAGE
C. Stage this hunk? e
Expected behavior:
After step C, the hunk opens in the user's editor
Actual behavior:
After step C, the hunk is selected unedited (as if the user had entered
"y")
AFAICT, this occurs because of the following code in
builtin/commit.c:parse_and_validate_options:
if (... || message.len || ...)
use_editor = 0;
...
if (!use_editor)
setenv("GIT_EDITOR", ":", 1);
Because --message is specified, GIT_EDITOR is set to ":", which
prevents the user from editing hunks, although the intent is most
likely to just prevent the user from editing the commit message.
