Another problem I have with 'git config --global' is that it changes
the access permission bits of ~/.gitconfig. Since I use the same file
to store global StGIT configuration like SMTP username and password,
I'd like to make its access 0600 but it always goes back to 0644 after
'git config --global'.

Maybe fixing the symlink case would solve my problem as well.

Thanks.
