Rather than having to pass --template to git init and clone for a custom
setup, `init.templatedir` may be set in '~/.gitconfig'
(Eg. git config --global --add init.templatedir ~/.gittemplate )
System administrators may prefer using this varialbe in the system-wide
config file rather than editing files under '/usr/share'.
(I.e. setting init.templatedir to $(prefix)/etc/gittempalte )
The environment variable GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR can already be used for this but
the '.gitconfig' file is a much better place for this type of setting.
