How to configure case insensitive git output

Posted . Visible to the public.

Git commands like diff use the less binary for their output representation.

I often find myself searching for strings like todo, then switching to the case-insensitive mode (-i) and re-doing my search.
Today I figured out that you can configure git to show case insensitive diffs every time:

git config --global core.pager 'less -i'
