git config --global --list
List the global configuration settings for Git
This command displays a list of all the global Git configuration settings.
The --global
flag specifies that the command should retrieve the global configuration values, rather than the repository-specific ones.
The --list
flag instructs Git to output the configuration values in a list format.
This command is useful for checking the global settings that Git is currently using.
Some variations are:
git config --global --get <key>
: Display the value of a specific configuration key.git config --global --add <key> <value>
: Add a new configuration key-value pair to the global Git configuration.git config --global --unset <key>
: Remove a configuration key from the global Git configuration.git config --global --replace-all <key> <value>
: Replace all values for a configuration key in the global Git configuration with a new value.
