This doesn't seem right. Check the code to see if we ever look at this registry value.

How to uninstall

Remove HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment\EDITOR from the registry and reboot your
system.

We do.

Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("EDITOR", dest.FullName.Replace('\\', '/'), EnvironmentVariableTarget.User);

It's a persistent user-level environment variable picked up by git. Ideally this would be configured in .gitconfig instead (which we do in GitHub desktop) but in either case the instruction is valid.
