DESCRIPTION

--add::
Adds a new line to the option without altering any existing
- values. This is the same as providing '^$' as the value_regex.
+ values. This is the same as providing '^$' as the value_regex
+ in `--replace-all`.
--get::
Get the value for a given key (optionally filtered by a regex
in the config file will cause the value to be multiplied
by 1024, 1048576, or 1073741824 prior to output.
+--bool-or-int::
+ 'git-config' will ensure that the output matches the format of
+ either --bool or --int, as described above.

-z::
--null::
For all options that output values and/or keys, always
When the color setting for `name` is undefined, the command uses
`color.ui` as fallback.
---get-color name default::
+--get-color name [default]::
Find the color configured for `name` (e.g. `color.diff.new`) and
output it as the ANSI color escape sequence to the standard
output. The optional `default` parameter is used instead, if
there is no color configured for `name`.
+-e::
+--edit::
+ Opens an editor to modify the specified config file; either
+ '--system', '--global', or repository (default).

FILES
-----
to the global or system-wide file respectively. The GIT_CONFIG environment
variable has a similar effect, but you can specify any filename you want.
-The GIT_CONFIG_LOCAL environment variable on the other hand only changes
-the name used instead of the repository configuration file. The global and
-the system-wide configuration files will still be read. (For writing options
-this will obviously result in the same behavior as using GIT_CONFIG.)
-
ENVIRONMENT
-----------
Using the "--global" option forces this to ~/.gitconfig. Using the
"--system" option forces this to $(prefix)/etc/gitconfig.
-GIT_CONFIG_LOCAL::
- Take the configuration from the given file instead if .git/config.
- Still read the global and the system-wide configuration files, though.
