Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: git
an...@omaplbp:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 10.10
Release: 10.10
an...@omaplbp:~$ apt-cache policy git
git:
Installed: 1:1.7.1-1.1
Candidate: 1:1.7.1-1.1
Version table:
*** 1:1.7.1-1.1 0

(The issue also exists with a freshly compiled from source git version
1.7.3.2)
On a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10 + updates to all packages, I tried to run
git config --global user.name="Anand Gadiyar"
followed by
git config -l
This failed with the error "fatal: error processing config file(s)".
I see that no ~/.gitconfig is created.
Running the first command with strace gives the log below.
an...@omaplbp:~$ strace git config --global user.name="Anand Gadiyar"
