-Global configuration variables apply to any Salesforce DX project and are always displayed. If you run this command from a project directory, local configuration variables are also displayed.
+A config variable can be global or local, depending on whether you used the --global flag when you set it. Local config variables apply only to the current project and override global config variables, which apply to all projects.  You can set all config variables as environment variables. Environment variables override their equivalent local and global config variables.
+
+The output of this command takes into account your current context. For example, let's say you run this command from a Salesforce DX project in which you've locally set the "target-org" config variable. The command displays the local value, even if you've also set "target-org" globally. If you haven't set the config variable locally, then the global value is displayed, if set. If you set the SF_TARGET_ORG environment variable, it's displayed as such and overrides any locally or globally set "target-org" config variable.
