[PATCH 1/2] Read configuration also from ~/.gitconfig
This patch is based on Pasky's, with three notable differences:
- I did not yet update the documentation
- I named it .gitconfig, not .gitrc
- git-repo-config does not barf when a unique key is overridden locally
The last means that if you have something like
[alias]
l = log --stat -M
in ~/.gitconfig, and
[alias]
l = log --stat -M next..
in $GIT_DIR/config, then
git-repo-config alias.l
returns only one value, namely the value from $GIT_DIR/config.
