Question : git global config location
Answered by : famous-flatworm-06w41cjggpby
To track down the file holding each config option set on your own system: git config --list --show-origin
Generally, there are three configs: * git config puts stuff in <repo root>/.git/config by default * git config --global puts stuff in <user home>/.gitconfig * On Linux/macOS, this means ~/.gitconfig * On Windows, this means %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\.gitconfig (not %USERPROFILE%\.gitconfig; these are not always the same) * git config --system puts stuff in a global config file shared by all users * On Linux, it's /etc/gitconfig * On macOS, it's /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/etc/gitconfig * On Windows, it's <wherever you installed Git>/etc/gitconfigSource : https://stackoverflow.com/a/2115116/470925 | Last Update : Mon, 10 May 21
