[PATCH v2 2/2] editor: save and reset terminal after calling EDITOR

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

 



When EDITOR is invoked to modify a commit message, it will likely
change the terminal settings, and if it misbehaves will leave the
terminal output damaged as shown in a recent report from Windows
Terminal[1]

Instead use the functions provided by compat/terminal to save the
settings and recover safely.
