Then various other bits of config won't be persistent, such as font settings. So I don't think that's a good idea. It would be possible to make the config file be per-repository rather than global, I guess, if that is something people want. I personally would find it annoying to have to change the font separately in each repository, but tastes differ, I guess. Paul.
