Subject: What means "git config bla ~/"?
Date: Mon, 02 Oct 2017 06:13:03 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171002061303.Horde.SL92grZCqTRV9oQkBFPELQ7@crashcourse.ca> (raw)

   i'm sure i'm about to embarrass myself but, in "man git-config",  
OPTIONS, one reads:

   --path

   git-config will expand leading ~ to the value of $HOME, and ~user  
to the   home directory for the specified user. This option has no  
effect when setting the value (but you can use git config bla ~/ from  
the command line to let your shell do the expansion).

   what's with that "git config bla ~/"? is this some config keyword  
or something?
