As of git 1.7.10+, it's possible to specify the following syntax in ~/.gitconfig:
[include]
path = /path/to/file
This changeset moves the gitconfig from copy/ to link/ .
The benefit of having gitconfig in link/ instead of copy/ is that updates to git aliases can be kept up to date by just running git pull on the dotfiles repo.
