;-)  Its output can be used in M-x find-grep, though, actually.

Yes, that is exactly what I was worried about.

I actually would support --no-editor.  One thing nobody noticed so
far is that "git-jump" is only compatible with editors that support
the "-q" option from the command line, and "cat" is not among them.


Another thing I was thinking about was a change like the attached.
Plugging it thru "git var" to allow "git var GIT_JUMP_EDITOR" may
allow vim users to set it to 'cat' while setting GIT_EDITOR to vim.

It still needs a fix to get rid of the uncondtional "-q" option from
open_editor() function, though.
