In C:\Users\[user]\bin add file editor.sh, containing:Then in C:\Users\[me]\.gitconfig:
... which reaches editor.sh since the latter is on the PATH.

(2011)GitHub for Windows notes
(2011)Once installed, I could find no evident way to proceed to clone a repo from github. There's supposed to be a "Clone in Windows" button somewhere, but I couldn't find it, and there's no menu (due to the Metro look), so WTF?
Looked at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ynUCjlhdXY
OK, it appears that the "Clone in Windows" button is not a feature of the GitHub for Windows app. Instead, this refers to a button that appears on github.com repo web pages, and it's actually called "Clone in Desktop". The button automatically calls GitHub for Windows app with instructions to clone the repo from that page. GitHub for Windows will start performing the clone, so it's necessary to already have the local repos directory setting pointing to the desired location.
