Package: gitolite
Version: 2.2-1
Severity: normal

PROBLEM

    $ gl-setup id_dsa.pub

    The default settings in the rc file (/root/.gitolite.rc) are fine for most
    people but if you wish to make any changes, you can do so now.

    hit enter...
    <and editor in launched>

The problem is that when shell processes are run inside Emacs (M-x
shell), the process just cannot launch another editor.

SUGGESTION

Add code to detection if running inside Emacs before starting editor. Emacs
M-x shell ca be detected by examining two environment variables:

    EMACS=t
    INSIDE_EMACS=23.3.1,comint

Display message at start of gl-setuo(1) and exit:

    Aborted. gl-setup cannot be run under Emacs shell.
