Something I'd be more comfortable with is making `git-config` a shell script containing calls to `git config --local`. Yes, it's then a two-step procedure, and people might forget to perform the second step, but *I* am in control and a `git pull` will not silently cause any config changes. /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: mag...@therning.org jabber: mag...@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus What gets measured, gets done. -- Tom Peters
