 ## Global git settings
 
 This is probably the first thing that needs to be customized, since it points to a different identity for each git user.
+I sign all my commits by default, so take out the corresponding lines if you don't, or exchange it with your gpg key.
+
+Git will rewrite any remotes using http(s) to use the ssh notation for pushes to github and gitlab so that, even if you set up the repository using an https url you can utilize your usual ssh key for pushing.
+
+Finally, the configuration makes use of a custom pager called `dsf` which is also contained in this module. 
+It tries to use `diff-so-fancy` if that is installed on the path, otherwise uses git's internal diff prettifier. 
+If nothing exists it falls back to the standard output.
+You can move between changed files in diffs with n/N.
+
+Otherwise, the git config is prepared to handle lfs repositories, and it has an assortment of smaller quality of life changes, though nothing major.
