Subject: Possible BUG in 'git config'
Date: Sun, 11 Feb 2007 15:13:27 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <e5bfff550702110613q315e1f7es4ca1a88b92e4c3e9@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

bash-3.1$ cat ./.git/config
[i18n]
        commitencoding = UTF-8

bash-3.1$ git repo-config --global user.name
marco

bash-3.1$ git repo-config user.name
marco

I would expect git repo-config user.name returns an empty string,
because user.name is defined _only_ in global config file ~/.gitconfig

>From git-config documentation:

--global::
	Use global ~/.gitconfig file rather than the repository .git/config.



How it is possible to know if a variable is stored in local config file?

Thanks
Marco
