GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL
A Claude Code environment variable, read out of the shipped bundle. It has been in the build since v2.1.202, including the newest one read.
What it is
Git calls in the sync path now respect your custom global and system config paths.
Not Anthropic's. This is the line from the earliest changelog entry here that named it, v2.1.227.
Presence across releases
| Releases | Reading | Declared type | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.1.245 – 2.1.251 6 releases | never mined | — | — |

| 2.1.202 – 2.1.209 8 releases | in the build | — | — |
A row reading never mined is a release with no archived bundle behind it. Nothing was read out of it, so nothing here says whether the name was in it. A declared type or a default is only ever what that release's own bundle stated.
