Yes, positive. I read up on it in the git documentation. The only config
file that Git uses
within a repository is .git/config. There is not supposed to be a config
file
that is part of the repository by default. It only becomes active when you
manually
enable it.

But are you sure that you need to enabled that in the .git/config?

Ahh that was what was missing, i have been wondering about that for a
while.

I am using Git in my KiCad development and found that I had problems
with
ignoring generated files.
After some stuffing around I found it was supposed to be handled through
configuring git to use the .bzringore file through a .gitconfig file.
However, this was not working correctly with the = sign missing in the
config file that I fixed.
Also, I took the opportunity to add a bit of explantion to the
.gitconfig
file as to what its intention is and how to enable it correctly for the
local repository.
