Re: [PATCH] t7005-editor.sh: Don't invoke real vi when it is in GIT_EXEC_PATH

Hi,

The git wrapper executable always prepends the GIT_EXEC_PATH build

enough to give precedence to the fake vi executable.

The --exec-path option allows to prepend a directory to PATH even before
GIT_EXEC_PATH (which is added anyway), so we can use that instead.

Hmm.  This will probably stop working when you do not have git installed, 
because you now tell git to search for git programs in ".", where they are 
not.  Probably git-commit executes your installed write-tree, commit-tree 
and friends, instead of the compiled ones.
