Subject: [PATCH v2] t/README: the test repo does not have global or system configs
Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2019 15:00:49 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191018140049.2183-1-philipoakley@iee.email> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <dc8afd1b-2e69-e54d-aee9-e5d6c4b729f5@iee.email>

Also, fix minor wording mistake in referenced config section.

Signed-off-by: Philip Oakley <philipoakley@iee.email>

The basic --local config also doesn't appear to be well defined here.
test-lib.sh sets GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR="$GIT_BUILD_DIR"/templates/blt
If no config template then..? e.g. G-F-W
[core]
	repositoryformatversion = 0
	filemode = false
	bare = false
	logallrefupdates = true
	symlinks = false
	ignorecase = true
