Also remember that git can be configured on
- system (for every user on the system and all of their repositories)
- global (specific config for each each user)
- local (per repository)
level. So depending on an option a different "gitconfig" file is affected.
You may face the issue that if your git installation is placed in windows program folder and you run:
git config --system core.longpaths true
you might receive an error when you want to change the config on the highest "system" level
=> error: could not lock config file C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64/etc/gitconfig: Permission denied
because the program folder might not be writable if you are not an admin.
In such a case and as an alternative you can configure this option on the "global" level for
the current windows user:
git config --global core.longpaths true
Hope that helps prevent some early trouble.
