Basically, the same feature as requested here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23400449/how-to-make-git-temporarily-ignore-gitconfig
I'd like an option to override gitconfig location, eg: `git --gitconfigfile=~/.gitconfig_temp diff` use cases: same as on that post: - Scripting Git: restrict to default settings for portability. - Debugging Git: restrict to default settings for reproducibility I don't want to affect git globally, just for duration of command. The current workarounds are not good: this affects other unrelated git commands, and you have to remember to call `disableconfig` (your script could fail and not reset it) ``` alias enableconfig="mv ~/.hiddengitconfig ~/.gitconfig"; alias disableconfig="mv ~/.gitconfig ~/.hiddengitconfig"; ``` `HOME=$HOME/althome git <args>` has other side effects, eg if some git command relies on `$HOME` Lots of other tools allow you to change config file location, eg `TIGRC_USER` for `tig` -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
