The issue was investigated. See: https://github.com/magit/magit/issues/2672 The solution is to configure with-editor to explicitly use Bash: (setq with-editor-sleeping-editor "\ bash -c '\ echo \"WITH-EDITOR: $$ OPEN $0\"; \ sleep 604800 & sleep=$!; \ trap \"kill $sleep; exit 0\" USR1; \ trap \"kill $sleep; exit 1\" USR2; \ wait $sleep'") Regards, Andrew -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "magit" group.
