Allow using the "%" variable in git commands
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
Closes #686

For example, when running:

  :Git add %

neovim throws the following exception:

  E499: Empty file name for '%' or '#',
  only works with ":p:h": terminal git add %

It is a result of the tabnew command, it creates a new blank tab where
"%" is empty.

This commit changes "tabnew" to "tabedit %" so you're still working on
the same file.

Once the command is done running the tab closes.

Still getting similar issue when running "Git status" (or any other Git command).
Using latest vim-fugitive.

Error detected while processing function <SNR>44_Git:
