Research direction

Start by reviewing book/01-introduction/sections/first-time-setup.asc and comparing its git config syntax with the current Git version. First determine whether the book targets Git 2 generally or a specific release; done means the documented setup commands match that scope.

Description

enhancement
General overview of your idea.

The syntax for git config has changed quite a bit.

What problem will this solve?

I'm not sure if the intent of this book is to stay up to date with version 2 of Git, or if it is tied to a specific release, so apologies if this is out of scope. See for example first-time-setup.asc.
