That looks good to me, but it’s missing a corresponding change to
git-svn.  I think something like this could be useful for Debian to
avoid patching to comply with the distro policy of falling back to
generic "pager" and "editor" symlinks.  How about the following two
patches?

Jonathan Nieder (1):
  Provide a build time default-editor setting

Junio C Hamano (1):
  Provide a build time default-pager setting
