Git global core.fileMode false overridden locally on clone

Reading this , I was able to configure both globally and locally the fileMode configuration to false.

However, when I git clone , git saves the initialization of projects with local configuration, force fileMode true , so that it overrides my global false . As a result, for each project I have either to delete the local configuration, or set it to false manually, which completely loses the meaning of the global configuration.

How can I prevent git from installing by default for each project, is this configuration local? Is this related to another configuration variable? On server?

Clone, like init, always sets the local core.filemode when creating a new repository. See my answer to this question for more details. The only way to clone a local setting after the clone has to do it manually (for example, having a wrapper command that makes the clone, then goes into the clone and remove the setting).
