I don't what the problem is, but as a shot in the dark:
I set the EDITOR variable in my environment to the full path to MacVim's
executable.
export EDITOR=/Applications/MacVim.app/Contents/MacOS/Vim
I don't have GIT_EDITOR set, nor core.editor, nor VISUAL.
Do you have anything configured in the color section of your git config?
