/etc/security
if you want to set it for all users you can use the wildcard * or you can put the group user and all new user are in user. so you will use @user.
Also if you are on systemd you can set that in /etc/systemd/user.conf .

repquota
REPQUOTA(8) System Manager's Manual REPQUOTA(8)
NAME
repquota - summarize quotas for a filesystem
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/repquota [ -vsug ] [ -t | -n ] [ -F format-name ] filesystem...
/usr/sbin/repquota [ -avtsug ] [ -t | -n ] [ -F format-name ]
DESCRIPTION
repquota prints a summary of the disc usage and quotas for the specified file systems. For each user the current number of files and
amount of space (in kilobytes) is printed, along with any quotas created with edquota(8).
OPTIONS
-a Report on all filesystems indicated in /etc/mtab to be read-write with quotas.
-v Report all quotas, even if there is no usage. Be also more verbose about quotafile information.
-t Truncate user/group names longer than 9 characters. This results in nicer output when there are such names.
-n Don't resolve UIDs/GIDs to names. This can speedup printing a lot.
-s Try to report used space, number of used inodes and limits in more appropriate units than default ones.
-F format-name
Report quota for specified format (ie. don't perform format autodetection). Possible format names are: vfsold (version 1 quota),
vfsv0 (version 2 quota), rpc (quota over NFS), xfs (quota on XFS filesystem)
-g Report quotas for groups.
-u Report quotas for users. This is the default.
Only the super-user may view quotas which are not their own.
FILES
aquota.user or aquota.group
quota file at the filesystem root (version 2 quota, non-XFS filesystems)
quota.user or quota.group
quota file at the filesystem root (version 1 quota, non-XFS filesystems)
/etc/mtab default filesystems
/etc/passwd default set of users
/etc/group default set of groups
