Sounds like a cool setup! Did you write it up somewhere publicly?

I also use VMs (qemu microvms) based on docker images for development.

Sorry it's on my other machine so I don't have it at hand. But it's an extremely simple setup that configs the email, the user, removes the need of --set-upstream when pushing, automate pushing with token.

I asked ChatGPT to write it and double checked btw.

Most of those things can just be set in your global git config file, and surely you're using some kind of repeatable/automated setup for VMs.. I don't see why you'd ever need to be doing something other than "copy default git config file" in your Vagrantfile/etc

That's a good idea. I use VirtualBox but I'm sure there is something similar I can do.

The benefit of vagrant is it works with a wide variety of Hypervisors (including vbox) and strongly encourages a reproducible setup through defined provisioning steps.
