Any additional configuration of git?

git config --list --global

[DevelopCMD]

running the command results in
"fatal: unable to read config file '/home/User/.gitconfig': No such file or directory"

[DevelopCMD]

because of this, i won't be able to update/install apps using scoop for a while

"fatal: unable to read config file '/home/User/.gitconfig': No such file or directory"

Are you using Scoop in WSL or Git Bash? please provide a full reproduction steps.

And

which git
get-command git

[DevelopCMD]

i have it installed using powershell

[DevelopCMD]

i have git installed with scoop

Seems like you're using a really old version of Git, that was installed along with the one from Scoop - and which has preference over Scoop's git. You need to uninstall that older git.

[HBDeveloper11]

The version of git that comes with Scoop is really old, so I should uninstall the old git and reinstall it using "scoop install git".

[DevelopCMD]

Note: after reinstalling git, the issue still persists. please help

[rashil2000]

What's the output of git --version?

[DevelopCMD]

Apparently, l found the issue.
For some reason, git-remote-https was blacklisted by my antivirus, so all I had to do was restore it and add an exception.
Everything works perfectly fine now.

Note: the antivirus I use is Avast, and for some reason it thought git-remote-https was a virus, even though it's not. Be careful when you use Avast, because it might detect false positives!
