# gitvi (update)


A
[colleague](http://www.atcomputing.nl/blog/authors/tonk/)
of mine had some nice improvements to `gitvi`.

Right now `gitvi` can be edited by itself, because the magic
sequence `$Hash$` is escaped like this

    sed -i -e 's/\$[H]ash:.*\$/$H''ash$/' "$base"

(This was Ton's idea)

Some other improvements like a `-m MSG` switch which allows
you to enter a commit message for all files you are editing.

And of course it then also needs to have a `-h` switch.

You can find the [improved version here](/downloads/2009/gitvi.txt)
