Explicitly set a static global git configuration

cottsay · leander-dsouza · commit f425df641a71 · 2025-09-09T14:17:06.000+01:00
Some of the vcs2l tests have expectations that certain git configuration
values are set. We should ignore any custom user configurations and
explicitly set the configuration values for those variables that are
assumed by the tests.
