I'm in the process of learning github on mac (command-line) and whenever I do git pull origin master i get this
# Please enter a commit message to explain why this merge is necessary, # especially if it merges an updated upstream into a topic branch. # # Lines starting with '#' will be ignored, and an empty message aborts # the commit. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ".git/MERGE_MSG" 7L, 293C the terminal seems to lock up and doesn't allow me to enter anything immediately, then when it finally does allow me to enter text it seems like it doesn't recognize git commands.
Is this a bug in git or am i missing something?

If you only want to get the latest code from the remote repo, select Repository > Pull (⇧⌘P) from the menu bar. This merges the remote code with your local code but does not push up your changes. If you only want to push up your current state to the remote reop, select Repository > Push (⌘P).
There are many different ways to set up Git on Mac. If you prefer using a GUI, Git offers a simple installation using the installer for Mac. On the other hand, you can install Git using the terminal with a couple of simple commands.
The git pull command is used to fetch and download content from a remote repository and immediately update the local repository to match that content. Merging remote upstream changes into your local repository is a common task in Git-based collaboration work flows.
You're in the text editor, vim! It's a modal text editor, so you would need to:
:w followed by enter to save.:q followed by enter to quit.
