Error:

On a x86 system
$ git config --global core.editor "'C:/Program Files/Notepad++/notepad++.exe' -multiInst -nosession"
On a x64 system
$ git config --global core.editor "'C:/Program Files (x86)/Notepad++/notepad++.exe' -multiInst -nosession"

Solution:

On a x86 system
$ git config --global core.editor "'C:/Program Files (x86)/Notepad++/notepad++.exe' -multiInst -nosession"
On a x64 system
$ git config --global core.editor "'C:/Program Files/Notepad++/notepad++.exe' -multiInst -nosession"

Note:
Program Files (x86) for x86 system, Program Files for x64 system

No, it's not typo.

There is no C:/Program Files (x86)/ on x86 Windows, only C:/Program Files/ there.

And x64 Windows supports both win32 and x64 application, so
C:/Program Files (x86)/ is for win32 application, such as Notepad++,
and
C:/Program Files/ is for x64 application.

it is just a typical example.The editor path is up to you.
It means $ git config --global core.editor "'[notepad++.exe path]' -multiInst -nosession"
Forget about the x86 or x64
