How spring cloud config use local property override remote property

I set the following configurations in remote git repo. It works this time.

spring:
  cloud:
    config:
      allowOverride: true
      overrideNone: true
      overrideSystemProperties: false

From the Overriding the Values of Remote Properties section in Spring Cloud documentation:

The property sources that are added to you application by the bootstrap context are often "remote" (e.g. from a Config Server), and by default they cannot be overridden locally, except on the command line. If you want to allow your applications to override the remote properties with their own System properties or config files, the remote property source has to grant it permission by setting spring.cloud.config.allowOverride=true (it doesn’t work to set this locally).

Once that flag is set there are some finer grained settings to control the location of the remote properties in relation to System properties and the application’s local configuration: spring.cloud.config.overrideNone=true to override with any local property source, and spring.cloud.config.overrideSystemProperties=false if only System properties and env vars should override the remote settings, but not the local config files.

So, it must be set in the remote application.yml (e.g. remote git repository). As noted here: "an app can't decide on its own that it can override configuration from the remote source".
