It’s no secret, I love Git (more and more every time I use Subversion, but that’s an entirely different story altogether), but one of the things I enjoy most about it is the fact that configuration options are made to be portable and because of that, easy to share. And while a configuration file may seem entirely boring, Git’s configuration file is a bit different, allowing for such things as default editor and aliases. I know these are things you can set globally for your system and in fact, I’m aware that some people might prefer this, but… I like having these things contained within my Git install when they in fact are wholly related to my Git install. So now that I’ve gotten all that out of the way, here’s my .gitconfig file (you can find yours in your home directory) in hopes that it might be useful to someone else.
