Yep, but only for the installer tests..
After actually using Git Bash I realised that the installer doesn't
change the global git configuration file
~/.gitconfig
when there's an editor line already there, no matter what the installer
gets fed.
At last I got emacsclient to run from Git Bash but, funnily, only with
the last line!? (Please note the quotes and /C/ without colons.)
[core]
# editor = \"C:/Program Files (x86)/GitExtensions/GitExtensions.exe\"
fileeditor
# editor = /C/Program Files/Emacs/emacs-28.0.91/bin/emacsclient.exe
--alternate-editor=\"\"
editor = \"/C/Program Files/Emacs/emacs-28.0.91/bin/emacsclient.exe\"
--alternate-editor=\"\"
Possibly using backlashes might also be a permissible pattern but I've
got enough for today.
Have a good time
Dieter
