How do I remove url.git from my gitconfig?

I run git config -l and I see a value I do not want:

url.git://.insteadof=https://

I tried git config --unset url.git. When I rerun the git config -l command the value is still there. I am running Windows 7. I went into C:\Users\bmackey\.gitconfig and the value is not in there. Running Everything, I do not see any other .gitconfig files on my machine (other than another users file which also does not contain this value).

The value is only showing up in one of my local git repo's. I went into project\.git\config and I do not see the value stored in there either.

How can I get rid of this variable? And (less importantly) where does this value come from?

I typed git config --global --edit and this opened up my global .gitconfig. After the VIM editor opened up I hit CTRLg and this displayed the path to the file. I saw the nasty little variable in there and deleted it.
