Global Configuration - Skaffold

Some context specific settings can be configured in a global configuration file, which defaults to ~/.skaffold/config. Options can be configured globally or for specific Kubernetes contexts. Context name matching supports regex, e.g.: .*-cluster.*-regex.*-test.*

The options are:

Option	Type	Description
`default-repo`	string	The image registry where built artifact images are published (see [image name rewriting]({{< relref "/docs/environment/image-registries.md" >}})).
`multi-level-repo`	boolean	If true, do not replace '.' and '/' with '_' in image name.
`debug-helpers-registry`	string	The image registry where debug support images are retrieved (see [debugging]({{< relref "/docs/workflows/debug.md" >}})).
`insecure-registries`	list of strings	A list of image registries that may be accessed without TLS.
`k3d-disable-load`	boolean	If true, do not use `k3d import image` to load images locally.
`kind-disable-load`	boolean	If true, do not use `kind load` to load images locally.
`local-cluster`	boolean	If true, do not try to push images after building. By default, contexts with names `docker-for-desktop`, `docker-desktop`, or `minikube` are treated as local.
`update-check`	boolean	Check for a more recent version of Skaffold.
`collect-metrics`	boolean	Collect anonymized usage data.

For example, to treat any context as local by default:

bash

skaffold config set --global local-cluster true

This will create a global configuration file at ~/.skaffold/config with local-cluster set to true.
