FYI, a revert is just another commit. You're simply committing the inverse of the previous commit. – isherwood Aug 13 '19 at 18:22

You should write a comment or bug to the author of the tutorial--they assumed that your system editor was nano when it could very well be vim (as mentioned here). The author probably had a configuration where nano was their editor without realizing that this wasn't universal. – nanofarad Aug 13 '19 at 18:31

I think you're asking how to exit edit mode in Git Bash. Type colon (:
), then enter wq
for "write, quit".
