Waldir Pimenta 87fb4e13bd git-config: overhaul page (#1402)
- expand description of local and global options
- adjust example descriptions for clarity
- change the descriptions of the get/set/remove examples to be more generic 
- change the alias example to a more useful one
- use "configuration entries" instead of "configuration options" to match both preset options and aliases

git config

Manage custom configuration options for git repositories. These configurations can be local (for the current repository) or global (for the current user).

  • List only local configuration entries (stored in .git/config in the current repository):

git config --list --local

  • List only global configuration entries (stored in ~/.gitconfig):

git config --list --global

  • List all configuration entries that have been defined either locally or globally:

git config --list

  • Get the value of a given configuration entry:

git config alias.unstage

  • Set the global value of a given configuration entry:

git config --global alias.unstage "reset HEAD --"

  • Revert a global configuration entry to its default value:

git config --global --unset alias.unstage
