@ctietze Does git prefer the EDITOR or VISUAL envvars over the on-disk setting? If so, you might be able to set up emacs (or the eshell it spawns) to expose one of those envvars set to an appropriate "emacs" value, so they override the on-disk setting that would otherwise apply ...

@goatsarah TVM :-) JOOI: did I make some mistake when setting up the poll that meant you couldn't vote?

@neil It /also/ turns out that most solicitors (round here) don't do the cheapie services like statutory declarations or certified copies, any longer :eyeroll:

#TIL that a "notary public" in the UK (at least) can only notarise documents for use *aboard* ... they can't notarise docs for one to use in the UK. If, for instance, you want to make a certified copy of a document then you have to use someone else's services, such as a solicitor. (A notary can /also/ be a solicitor, of course).

@neil yeah, but what does a /pirate/ use?

arrrrrrrrrlogin!

Because pirates are fundamentally unconcerned about safety, viewing risk as part and parcel of their chosen vocation.
