I'm new to git, and I'm doubting how can I synchronize config files between developers.
Let's say I want all developers to have core.autocrlf set to true, or the same commit template, how can I do it?
Any idea?
Thanks!

Git stores all global configurations in . gitconfig file, which is located in your home directory. To set these configuration values as global, add the --global option, and if you omit --global option, then your configurations are specific for the current Git repository.
git-sync is a command that pull a git repository to a local directory. It can be used to source a container volume with the content of a git repo.
The git config command is a convenience function that is used to set Git configuration values on a global or local project level. These configuration levels correspond to . gitconfig text files. Executing git config will modify a configuration text file.
There is no such guarantee in a DVCS (as in "Distributed"), since local settings beat global settings.
But in a closed environment (where the population of developers have accessed to a common and shared set of resources), you can:
git init process (to use a template, for common settings)GIT_CONFIG environment variable to a shared read-only file (on Linux, accessed through Samba from Windows users), to force all config settings to be read from there.This is not a full-proofed solution, but it can get you started.
