I was unaware of these options before I saw this post. I still hardly use
them---I’m still not sure if it’s a good idea to force push to a remote most
of the time---but if you’re going to do it you ought to include these.

+
+Chacon, one of the author's of the indispensable [Pro
+Git](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2), collects some of the Git configuration
+options that Git's own developers use. I'd already picked up some of these from
+other blog posts over the past coupe years, but some are still new to me. This
+is a great resource.

+
+Similar to the above, here Evans collects configuration options suggested by
+her readers on Mastodon. I've been a `pull.ff only` person for the past year,
+thanks to this. This has a lot of overlap with Chacon's post and they're both
+worth checking out. (Shout out to my friend [Dave](https://davidslinger.com/)
+for reminding me about both of these).
