SYNOPSIS¶

EXAMPLE¶
$ git var GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@lnxi.com> 1121223278 -0600
VARIABLES¶
GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT
The author of a piece of code.
GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT
The person who put a piece of code into Git.
GIT_EDITOR
Text editor for use by Git commands. The value is meant
to be interpreted by the shell when it is used. Examples: ~/bin/vi,
$SOME_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE, "C:\Program Files\Vim\gvim.exe"
--nofork. The order of preference is the $GIT_EDITOR environment variable,
then core.editor configuration, then $VISUAL, then $EDITOR, and then the
default chosen at compile time, which is usually vi.
GIT_PAGER
Text viewer for use by Git commands (e.g., less).
The value is meant to be interpreted by the shell. The order of preference is
the $GIT_PAGER environment variable, then core.pager configuration, then
$PAGER, and then the default chosen at compile time (usually
less).
