(i asked about this on the git mailing list, but i figured i'd take advantage of the collective knowledge here.) i'm updating some of my git courseware, and i want to add to the "git config" section some examples of git configuration that make practical sense to add to the system-wide /etc/gitconfig file that would make obvious sense to apply to everyone on the system. notwithstanding that users can, of course, override whatever they want in /etc/gitconfig, what system git config settings have people used that even novice users in my classes would appreciate make sense to apply to everyone on the system? my initial thoughts are things like: * filesystem-related settings (core.protect{HFS,NTFS}) * whitespace/EOL standardization settings for consistency * any proxy/ssh-related settings * http.* settings * some of the sendemail.* settings and so on. obviously, as the admin, you can put a *ton* of git configuration in /etc/gitconfig to inflict on the users, but i'm curious as to actual, practical examples people have used on their systems. thoughts? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
