Description hifi 2015-07-15 05:35:23 UTC 
Git team menu has an "Open Configuration" button under "Repository" for the current one. Having an "Open Global Configuration" or just "Open Configuration" in the main Team menu would be handy to set up your global defaults.

NetBeans respects the global config and in some cases you might not even know that you have something there as it was set up by some other git tool.

This is related to bug 253482 as creating the .gitconfig file on Windows is not trivial nor knowing the location where to create it.

Thanks!
