Help!

I'm having two problems with git which are not critical but very annoying. I'm on ubuntu feisty and everything relevant is installed by apt-get

1. The core.editor config option is not working. I hate vi, could live with vim, but for such simple stuff prefer pico. Here is the config file from my .git directory:

[core]
       repositoryformatversion = 0
       filemode = true
       editor = "/usr/bin/pico"
[user]
       name = homunq
       email = asdfasdfasdf

2. My .gitignore (*.pyc and *.bak) is not working. I've tried putting it both in my project directory (idlydevelop) and in the .git subdirectory. It is added and committed to the repository too, not that that should make any difference.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Homunq 01:45, 5 September 2007 (EDT)
