Users may already store sensitive data such as imap.pass in .git/config; making the file world-readable when "git config" is called to edit means their password would be compromised on a shared system. [v2: updated for section renames, as noted by Junio] Signed-off-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
