git config -> "fatal: bad config file"

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

 



I made a mistake editing my config file using "git config -e". This caused git commands to fail.

Trying to fix the problem, I did

git config -e
fatal: bad config file line 7 in .git/config

I think the refusal to edit a broken config file is not a good idea. It's easy to fix for me of course by editing .git/config directly, but git-config should probably not read the config file at all.

Thanks for your consideration.
