Also some good editors printed error message after they got EIO, confusing the user. Looks good to me. I've tested this with ed (always ignores SIGINT and SIGQUIT), vim (always ignores SIGINT, but dies after three SIGQUIT) and "sleep" (dies after SIGINT and SIGQUIT) and git works now as expected. Doing what editor does is probably the best thing to do.
