Hi Leif, https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/Laszlo's-unkempt-git-guide-for-edk2-contributors-and-maintainers is a great resource. It's very useful.
I tested this scripts. I found a minor issue that I have a local edk2 repo which was cloned by the command: "git clone https://github.com/tianocore/edk2"; not "git clone https://github.com/tianocore/edk2.git"; and when I run this script, it reported "Unknown upstream ....". The script works well if the git url is https://github.com/tianocore/edk2.git So would you update the script to support the url with or without the ".git" suffix?

Script works with python2/3 under both Posix and Windows. Note: the script does require the 'gitpython' module to be installed. Under Linux, this can be achieved with your distribution package manager. Under Windows, you can install this from the Visual Studio python environment->packages (pypi), and searching for 'gitpython'. Note2: for simplicity's sake, the script uses a single copy of the configuration files for each repository - pointing all of them to the copies in edk2 BaseTools. Note3: we're hardcoding absolute paths here, so if you move repositories around, you need to re-run the script. Note4: all of the settings are done only on a per-repository basis, so as not to mess with environments for unlelated projects. This also means many settings that are common across all repositories are set in each of them. Note4: the script identifies repositories based on their 'origin' URL, so if someone had a good use-case for something cute, there may be more work required. Future plans: It would be useful to also add common git-hook scripts to install. I already have some for my own maintainer use. Even though we only modify settings for the current repository, it would also make sense to add some sanity checking for global settings (name, email, mail server config...).
