I had been using notepad as my editor without any problem, but after upgrading to 2.5.3, I get an error after saving a commit message:

fmt: invalid width: ''
error: There was a problem with the editor 'notepad'.
Please supply the message using either -m or -F option.

Calling git config --global format.commitMessageColumns 80 caused the error to go away
