Notepad++ as a Vim Replacement for Msys on Windows

git config –global core.editor „‚C:/Program Files (x86)/Notepad++/notepad++.exe‘ -multiInst -notabbar -nosession -noPlugin“

With problems like „this is not a terminal“ this is quite a nice solution.

On a side note, Msys comes with a very old Version of svn (binary) that is found on the beginning of the PATH Env Variable. Getting a newer one produced some nice blind-side errors since the console output was always the one from the old Version. I suggest using the Collab.Net SVN Cli.
