I personally agree that everyone should just enable them globally if
they can. Still, maybe it's just me, but I don't like proposing global
changes to users when they need it just for some repo.

And also, I keep seeing Windows users having `git config --local
core.symlinks` set to `false` (God knows why - in theory Git for
Windows suppose to set `--system core.symlinks` to `false`, `--local`
shouldn't be affected by this) and just setting `--local` helps
covering those cases too.
