Ah, in that case I don't see why we should single out this Git setting from all the others, in a document intended for people starting to develop Emacs. We should strive for simple instructions, something like "git clone URL; cd emacs; make" rather than a treatise on Git configuration that will be confusing and off-putting. If anything, even the current instructions are too complicated.
If this setting is generally advisable for Emacs developers, it should be done as part of the default simple setup. If not, not.
