TortoiseGit's equivalent to TortoiseSVN's global ignore patterns

Is there a TortoiseGit equivalent to TortoiseSVN's开发者_运维技巧 "global ignore patterns" setting?

---

As mentioned in this SO question, git has 3 levels of ignore files.

If you reference one in your ~/.gitconfig, you can manage your global ignore pattern (even though this is not directly integrated in TortoiseGit).

global ignore patterns are stored in

• ~/.gitconfig

where ~ is the users home directory.

Some alias examples (which are stored in mentioned files due to the --global option):

• git config --global alias.co checkout
• git config --global alias.br branch
• git config --global alias.ci commit
• git config --global alias.st status

See git config for details.
