With git 1.8.3.3,
$ seq 5 >data
$ git add data
$ git commit -mdata
$ sed -i '2 d' data
$ git commit -pmchange
At the prompt, type e to edit the hunk. The editor doesn't start, but git
records a commit.
I found that builtin/commit.c sets the GIT_EDITOR env var to ":" when the user
specifies the -m option. This was done in 406400ce4f69. Removing these two
lines,
if (!use_editor)
setenv("GIT_EDITOR", ":", 1);
seems to fix the issue, but I'm not sure this won't break the
prepare-commit-msg hook. I'd like to submit a patch: can I get a hint if this
change would break commit hooks or anything else I'm not seeing?--
