How to make a git command read settings from .gitconfig file?

Question

I have figured out how to make my own git command , but I want to be able to allow user saved settings required by my git command into git ~/.gitconfig file and later my git command read from the config file instead of having user to input each time the git command is executed.

Is there a simple way to read ~/.gitconfig file or do I have to parse read the content ?

what does this question have to do with python? Are you coding ? Show us your code. — oz123

Use git config --global. It is purpose-built for reading and writing settings to your .gitconfig.
