git default editor on Windows 10

I just download and installed git on Windows 10. When I enter git config --global --edit it opens file in some editor, which I do not know how it is called. How can I find out? There are tons of links explaining how to change it, but they do not say what I already have as default.

If I remember correctly, the default editor is Vim, ESC + Shift ZZ to close.
