Easiest way to reset git config file : <p>I am finally getting around to learning git. However, I unwisely started messing around with it awhile back (before I really knew what I was doing) via Sourcetree. Now that I'm trying to go through it, I have a pretty large list of settings. When I input: </p>

<pre><code>git config --list
</code></pre>

<p>I get the following result:</p>

<pre><code>core.excludesfile=~/.gitignore
core.legacyheaders=false
core.quotepath=false
core.pager=less -r
mergetool.keepbackup=true
push.default=simple
color.ui=auto

repack.usedeltabaseoffset=true
alias.s=status
alias.a=!git add . &amp;&amp; git status
alias.au=!git add -u . &amp;&amp; git status
alias.aa=!git add . &amp;&amp; git add -u . &amp;&amp; git status
alias.c=commit
alias.cm=commit -m
alias.ca=commit --amend
alias.ac=!git add . &amp;&amp; git commit
alias.acm=!git add . &amp;&amp; git commit -m
alias.l=log --graph --all --pretty=format:'%C(yellow)%h%C(cyan)%d%Creset %s %C(white)- %an, %ar%Creset'

<p>And that seems like more than what I want to start with since the tutorial that I'm working through doesn't pull all of that up.</p>

<p>Is there a way to "Reset" the config file to a default state?</p>
