So the challenge is this:

  1. Remove all the configuration that is not essential (just leave
     user.name and user.email or equivalent)
  2. Pick 2 configurations you think you can't live without. You are not
     allowed to change them afterwards.
  3. Every day you can add 1 additional configuration (and update it the
     next day).
  4. The moment you add a 4th configuration you lose.

Once you've lost, reply to this message with the configuration you could
not live without.

+1 for merge.conflictstyle = diff3, rerere.enabled = true, and
log.decorate = short from me. I noticed others already mentioned
these.

My favorites which no one has mentioned yet are rebase.autosquash =
true and rebase.autostash = true. IMO these two really improve
rebase's usability.
