Make sure you can start your editor from the terminal If you use Sublime, you can do this by add the following line to your .bash_profile (you may need to change the path if Sublime is installed in a different location for you):
alias subl="/Applications/Sublime\ Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl"
Making Git configurations Run the following Git configuration commands. The first one will need to be modified if you are using a text editor other than Sublime, or if Sublime is installed in another location for you. See this page for the correct command for a couple of other popular text editors. For any other editor, you'll need to enter the command you use to launch that editor from the terminal.
git config --global core.editor "'/Applications/Sublime Text 2.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl' -n -w"
git config --global push.default upstream
git config --global merge.conflictstyle diff3
