[PATCHv2] Possibility to read both from ~/.gitconfig and from $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: NGUYEN Huynh Khoi Nguyen <nguyenhu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Git will read both in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config and in ~/.gitconfig in this order:
.git/config > ~/.gitconfig > $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config > /etc/gitconfig
If $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is either not set or empty, $HOME/.config/git/config will be used.
