One small comment. You can put the global configs inside $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config, and it's loaded before ~/.gitconfig.

That's amazing. Tx op. Now I/we just need video tutorials for beginners to show how all these commands are used and why. You can do it!

Julia Evans has great articles on everything about Internet. Recently, she started to blog about git. I don't think those are great for beginners but they are great quality. For beginners I would recommend other texts like Atlassian guides (the company behind bitbucket, alternative to GitHub), https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials or the Game ohmygit.org
