How do I exit a pull request in git bash on Windows? I just ran git pull upstream master
and now I am being prompted to make a commit message. I have tried typeing q
, qw
, wq
, ctrl+c
, esc
anything I can think of to get out of this but nothing returns me to the normal git shell. Bellow is a screen capture of my bash window.

That looks like Vim so.... possible duplicate of [How to exit the Vim editor?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11828270/how-to-exit-the-vim-editor) Did you make sure you were in normal mode (hit `esc`) then type a colon before your commands (`:wq`)? – hnefatl Feb 05 '19 at 20:06

Omg, thank you I did not know I needed to hit colon first. – Andrew Pullins Feb 05 '19 at 20:32
