Escape character for .gitconfig

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have an editor path that includes "(" and ")". No matter how I try to escape this character, I get either variations on:

C:/Program Files (x86)/Notepad++/notepad++.exe: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `(' C:/Program Files (x86)/Notepad++/notepad++.exe: -c: line 0: `C:/Program Files (x86)/Notepad++/notepad++.exe \$@\' error: There was a problem with the editor 'C:/Program Files (x86)/Notepad++/notepad++.exe'.
Please supply the message using either -m or -F option.

or:

fatal: bad config file line 5 in C:\Users\xxx/.gitconfig

As you can see, I'm running git on a Win7 64 machine. Is there any way to escape the brackets? Or do I need to reinstall notepad++ on a different path?
