@hendisantika you need change your password encoding special characters:
git config --global http.proxy http://hendi santika:myp%40ssw0rd@proxy.server.co.id:8080

Is there a way to specify two different .gitignore files in the gitconfig file?
Something like this:
[remote "origin"]
.gitignore = .gitignore-origin
[remote "ac"]
.gitignore = .gitignore-ac

@Zooloo2014

[credential "https://github.com"]
        username = scott18

to define username for github.com only

I'm trying to find the full list of options I can use inside the .gitconfig file. Where I can find those?

Thanks, this is great!

Thanks!

Another alternative for .gitignore files: https://www.gitignore.io/

Thanks. Very useful

Great!

thx!

Thanks !

Thanks a lot man....

super useful 👍

[user]
signingkey = 0A3D7C5B8C2499A8BEBCE72869D2E5C413569DA2

To sign commits with yout GPG key.

gpg --list-secret-keys and copy

To sign your commit:
git commit -S -m "signed commit"

thank you mucho

Add rebase tool, download here: https://github.com/MitMaro/git-interactive-rebase-tool
Place it in .git folder in User Profile folder.
Edit .gitconfig, if using Git Bash in Windows:

[sequence]
	editor = "winpty /c/Users/{Username}/.git/interactive-rebase-tool.exe"

Very useful! Thanks. You don't have a [credential] section. Do you know how that would be used?

I found it:

[credential]
	helper = cache

# same as above, but pass an argument to the helper
[credential]
	helper = "cache --timeout=3600"

Important you need both stanzas for it to work.

this is nice. Thanks

Very helpful

oh, man! this saved my day!
These two specifications!

# This is Git's per-user configuration file.
[user]
# Please adapt and uncomment the following lines:
#       name = user
#       email = user@SDF-1
[user]
        name = user name
        email = user@SDF-1
        signingkey = 584xxxxxxx4C7sdfs df sdfsfsdf dsx

[github]
        user = user
        token = dfgh dfgh fdh455 w45tw gdfgfs g

[credential]
        helper = cache

# same as above, but pass an argument to the helper
[credential]
        helper = "cache --timeout=3600"

I just regret that I didn't know this repo.
This is incredible, thanks a lot!

Thanks! Also, if you know, what kind of format is this? I've seen it around (e.g. .aws/config file for aws cli) but I haven't come across the name for it.

According to the documentation, there is no specific "standard" .gitconfig format. It's just a list defined by brackets and indents that Git expects to see. The closest related filetype would be a .ini file. Although similar, they still have distinct qualities that define the difference, especially in the subsections and when using values with quotations.

.gitconfig files are not difficult to edit; simply remember 1.) Sections & comments are never indented. 2.) All other lines are evenly indented (anything between 2 and 6 spaces is okay in my experience); the important point is to make them all the same width. If you prefer, use sed or awk on the Unix/Linux command line to make edits more effectively.

thanks for this!
