[PATCH 1/2] Add support for a shared config file

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

 



The idea is that a project develops indigenous aliases that
should be shared project-wide.  The only way to communicate this
now is by channels outside of git--email or IRC or such. We add
support for the case where a project configuration can be in
.gitconfig in the top level of the repository.
