Git - Configuration and Aliases

Agit config core.editor "subl -n -w"

Bgit config --global core.editor "subl -n -w"

Cgit config core.editor subl -n -w

Dgit config --system core.editor "subl -n -w"

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Choose local config for specific repo
To set editor only for current repo, omit --global and --system flags.
Step 2: Include editor options correctly
Options like -n (new window) and -w (wait) must be inside quotes to be passed as a single string.
Final Answer:
git config core.editor "subl -n -w" -> Option A
Quick Check:
Local config with quoted options = git config core.editor "subl -n -w" [OK]

Quick Trick: Use quotes to include editor options; omit --global for local [OK]

Common Mistakes:

Using --global when local is needed
Not quoting editor options
Using --system without admin rights
