Nevermind, found out why vi is the default editor which does not appear to be included in git by default. Solution was to set the git editor using git config --global core.editor "vim"

Maybe add this to the readme?

Thank you anyway ! - it is already in the documentation (set GIT_EDITOR env var) - you are not the first one who have seen this misleading error message :).
