I am using Ubuntu 18.04 ,I have removed previous version of sublime text through Ubuntu Software and then installed it through sublime text's official documentation given Here .



After that Whenever I am trying to git commit it gives the following message and does nothing .



git commit
hint: Waiting for your editor to close the file...
'/Applications/Sublime Text 2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl'
-n -w: 1: '/Applications/Sublime Text
2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl' -n -w:
/Applications/Sublime Text 2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl:
not found
error: There was a problem with the editor ''/Applications/Sublime
Text 2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl' -n -w'.
Please supply the message using either -m or -F option.


As I am still new to Linux/Ubuntu so want to understand what exactly this issue is and how to resolve it .my current installed version of sublime text is build 3200 . Kindly suggest a way to resolve this issue ,thank you !

If an editor is set in the git config git commit called without -m or -F will try to open this editor for you to provide a commit message, which is failing in your case. You can either only commit providing a commit message



git commit -m "my commit message"


or change the configuration, e.g. remove the editor lines with



git config --unset-all core.editor


or correct the setting with:



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