git wants the editor tool to wait stay running until you are done editing the file (which is what command line editors do.) By default, `bbedit` exits immediately. You want to add --wait (tool will wait for you to finish editing/close the document before existing) and optionally --resume (pop the terminal back to the front when finished.) $ git config --global core.editor "bbedit --wait --resume" Jim --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BBEdit Talk" group.
