# Random git files
- `gitignore` - `.gitignore` templates I may or may not use
- `etc/gitconfig` - a `/etc/gitconfig` for accepting signed pushes
## Tracking GitHub pull requests with `git`
```bash
git config --add remote.GITHUB.fetch '+refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/GITHUB/pr/*'
```
Replace `GITHUB` with the `git remote` name. I have picked this up from a
dead `git.io` link.
- TODO: Figure out if this also works for GitLab or what is the GitLab version?
Gitea too.

## Debugging git
Git obeys some environment variables that may be helpful for troubleshooting
- `GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1` results to more information what git is doing e.g.
during cloning.
- [Verbose Output from git](https://wrightturn.wordpress.com/2016/08/16/verbose-output-from-git/)
- `GIT_TRACE=1` & `GIT_TRACE2=1` give very deep debug information
