Is it possible to ignore git file mode change in my own ~/.gitconfig

Question

From old thread: How do I make Git ignore file mode (chmod) changes?

It seems to me that I need to do on every repository, right? Is it possible to set in my own ~/.gitconfig?

Answer 1

It seems to be a bug, because running git config --global core.fileMode false doesn't work, but git config core.fileMode false or git config --global core.filemode false both do.

So pick one of those.

My git --version is git version 1.7.10.4
