Hi,
I'm attempting to implement Git at our company, and we currently use a 
commit template for CVS. I can convert this to a Git-formatted template, 
and set it for use with git-config commit.template ....

However, once the repository is cloned, this configuration option 
vanishes from .git/config

Is there a way to make configuration options sticky?

thanks,
Toby

Create or edit $prefix/share/git-core/templates/config.

Thanks.
Will that keep the commit-template propagated even when the repo is 
cloned from another machine? (ie. using git: or ssh: methods)

No. You have to edit this file on each machine.
