    Lol if you know how to exit, you may know that you actually can change almost everything about vim.

      I don’t think you can add modifier keys in shortcuts.

      And this behavior should come out of the box, not me changing stuff around so I can make it usable. For something that I use all the time, sure, but I only use a terminal text editor with git, and I don’t use git that often. For everything else, I use a GUI text editor (mousepad, leafpad, whatever).

        nnoremap <C-q> :q<CR>

        This works for me to bind control+q to quit.

        edit: easier to upload an image because lemmy is eating the “html” characters

        You can set which editor to use with git using the GIT_EDITOR environment variable instead of telling other people their editor isn’t usable by your standards.

          Yes, I know, and I have it set to nano, but even then, I don’t use nano that much anyway, I do most edits in a GUI text editor.
