Even if the bulitin version takes 1 sec to spawn an editor while a standalone one took only 0.1 sec, if other criteria you listed that are more important favours the builtin solution, we should pick it. In any case, I think we've wasted enough time on this. Let's see a minimum working version that won't break/affect the rest of Git and ship it standalone. Thanks.
