Use nano as the editor in git bash for Windows.

It’s pretty easy to setup the nano editor as the git editor on Windows.

Just follow these steps:

• Download the nano executable for Windows: https://www.nano-editor.org/dist/win32-support/
• Rename it to nano.exe and move it to C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\bin
• Run the following command in cmd: git config --global core.editor "winpty nano"

And you’re all set. Nano will now be the default editor used for git commands.

Enjoy. 🙂
