Reset git settings

Question

When I try downloading this git repo I keep getting error: RPC failed; result=56, HTTP code = 200 and I think this is because I messed up some settings (i was playing about with --config and --bare today)

Is there a way how I can reset my git configuration to the factory settings?

If it helps I am on a Mac.

Answer 1

Git settings are stored in ~/.gitconfig. Just delete that file.
