Hi Philip. I don't have any setting like that in either my ~/.gitconfig, or in the .git/config files. I really haven't tweaked my git config at all.
This is a typical .git/config file: [core] repositoryformatversion = 0 filemode = true bare = false logallrefupdates = true [remote "origin"] url = ssh://ktan...@git.code.sf.net/p/agency/code fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/* [branch "master"] remote = origin merge = refs/heads/master My ~/.gitconfig just has name and email settings in it.
