Exiting VIM is hard; sometimes we need to take drastic measures
For those like me who don't edit text from the terminal often enough to memorize any vim or emacs shortcuts, your system probably ships with nano, which is a dead-simple editor built for people like us: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_nanoYou can even set it as your default editor via an environment variable and it'll get automatically invoked as needed by git, etc.
