Subject: a problem with the gitconfig file for user.email
Date: Sun, 13 Mar 2011 17:32:52 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <loom.20110313T182907-610@post.gmane.org> (raw)

why is it necessary to have a <TAB> before the email keyword in the [user]
section? Other keywords work with whitespace.
If not, one get the error message:
  fatal: bad config file line 2 in /home/guy-kde/.gitconfig
