First off, it seems to be throwing an error when I invoke magit-status, at least if there's no changes. I don't know if this is related to the fact that my emacs is only 22.1, but magit itself doesn't document any required version of emacs. Secondly, when there is a change, the coloration is really hard to read, and the navigation is quite poor as well (and I didn't find anything to make it better in the cheatsheet). And it's far slower than just using `git add -p` and only dropping into emacs occasionally for manual hunk edits. I'm still very much interested in finding a solution to why ^G kills emacs when it's invoked by git. As I said earlier, it appears that emacs shares the same process group with the perl process that called it, even though Andreas Schwab says it puts itself into its own process group and invoking emacs from the shell does just that. Does anyone know why this might be happening? -Kevin Ballard-- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
