I agree it's unfortunate we can't set repository-level defaults that
come along with the initial clone. We could have a script though that
users can run to display or adjust the appropriate settings, perhaps.
Our standard quickstart instructions could be something like

% git clone foo@cgit-beta.freebsd.org/src.git
% cd src
% sh tools/git-repo-init.sh
