Kubernetes gitconfig mounted as directory instead of file - azure

Question

I have some helm charts in which I would like to mount the git config globally on each container.
In this case the home directory for each container is / path. When I would like to do it manually on the container I am getting following
git config --global --add safe.directory "*" error: could not lock config file //.gitconfig: Permission denied
Now I want to map my config map to the global .gitconfig file.
set {
name = "git.sync.extraVolumeMounts[0].name"
value = "git-config"
}
set {
name = "git.sync.extraVolumeMounts[0].mountPath"
value = "/.gitconfig"
}
set {
name = "git.sync.extraVolumeMounts[0].subPath"
value = ".gitconfig"
}
With such config I am getting the .gitconfig as folder not the file
bitnami#airflow-web-7cdb6f5d6f-48mzh:/$ ls -la
total 84
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 Dec 2 12:20 .
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 Dec 2 12:20 ..
drwxrwsrwx 2 root bitnami 4096 Dec 2 12:20 .gitconfig
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 Jul 30 11:21 bin
Any idea what I am doing wrong? Is there any environment variable instead I can set?
I tried to use system config but it does not work either as some folder structure is missing.

Just for future, I was able to achieve that with the usage of the proper escaping
{
"name": "git.sync.extraVolumeMounts[0].mountPath",
"type": null,
"value": "/\\.gitconfig"
},
{
"name": "git.sync.extraVolumeMounts[0].name",
"type": null,
"value": "git-config"
},
{
"name": "git.sync.extraVolumeMounts[0].subPath",
"type": null,
"value": "gitconfig"
},
This basically, creates a .gitconfig file and not a folder.
Setup is working fine.
