Thanks. I was working with my repo for which I added the dotfiles setting and realized that it was more of a project wide policy setting (like allow-symlinks) vs a personal preference setting (like dont-push that depends on the person using it and what they're doing at a given time). I felt a little silly that I hadn't realized it when I first added it.
Actually, in looking at the list of settings, I'm wondering if case-sensitive ought to be versionable as well. It seems like the same type of setting to me, but my experience with it is limited (since I'm typically on Windows and don't deal with case sensitive file systems much). Just thought I'd toss it out there.
