How can I remove an entry in global configuration with git config?

by

I’m not sure what you mean by “undo” the change. You can remove the core.excludesfile setting like this:

git config --global --unset core.excludesfile

And of course you can simply edit the config file:

git config --global --edit

…and then remove the setting by hand.
