bug create does not check for existance of issues directory before firing editor #16

Closed strk closed 5 years ago

strk commented 8 years ago

Presence of an issue directory set via PMIT is not checked upfront, but only after writing a bug description. Would be helpful to know before spending time in writing the description

Moreover, after your editor told you it could not write the new file (as the directory did not exist) you still get an Created issue: ... message, like if the bug create did not check return code from editor (which most likely returned a non-zero code).

Ok, taking back the last comment, vim is actually existing with code 0 when force-quitting with :q!

I think other tools (like mutt) use a temporary file buffer while editing, and perform some checks at the end (like empty file -> error)
