How to set git to prune on pull globally

Question

With the command:

git config remote.origin.prune true

you can configure a repo to automatically prune on every pull request as per this question.

I always want this option to be set. Does anyone know a way to set this globally for all repos' remote origins or is the only option to perform it per repo?
