1advice.*:: 2 These variables control various optional help messages designed to 3 aid new users. All 'advice.*' variables default to 'true', and you 4 can tell Git that you do not need help by setting these to 'false': 5+ 6-- 7 fetchShowForcedUpdates:: 8 Advice shown when linkgit:git-fetch[1] takes a long time 9 to calculate forced updates after ref updates, or to warn 10 that the check is disabled. 11 pushUpdateRejected:: 12 Set this variable to 'false' if you want to disable 13 'pushNonFFCurrent', 14 'pushNonFFMatching', 'pushAlreadyExists', 15 'pushFetchFirst', and 'pushNeedsForce' 16 simultaneously. 17 pushNonFFCurrent:: 18 Advice shown when linkgit:git-push[1] fails due to a 19 non-fast-forward update to the current branch. 20 pushNonFFMatching:: 21 Advice shown when you ran linkgit:git-push[1] and pushed 22 'matching refs' explicitly (i.e. you used ':', or 23 specified a refspec that isn't your current branch) and 24 it resulted in a non-fast-forward error. 25 pushAlreadyExists:: 26 Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects an update that 27 does not qualify for fast-forwarding (e.g., a tag.) 28 pushFetchFirst:: 29 Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects an update that 30 tries to overwrite a remote ref that points at an 31 object we do not have. 32 pushNeedsForce:: 33 Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects an update that 34 tries to overwrite a remote ref that points at an 35 object that is not a commit-ish, or make the remote 36 ref point at an object that is not a commit-ish. 37 pushUnqualifiedRefname:: 38 Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] gives up trying to 39 guess based on the source and destination refs what 40 remote ref namespace the source belongs in, but where 41 we can still suggest that the user push to either 42 refs/heads/* or refs/tags/* based on the type of the 43 source object. 44 statusAheadBehind:: 45 Shown when linkgit:git-status[1] computes the ahead/behind 46 counts for a local ref compared to its remote tracking ref, 47 and that calculation takes longer than expected. Will not 48 appear if `status.aheadBehind` is false or the option 49 `--no-ahead-behind` is given. 50 statusHints:: 51 Show directions on how to proceed from the current 52 state in the output of linkgit:git-status[1], in 53 the template shown when writing commit messages in 54 linkgit:git-commit[1], and in the help message shown 55 by linkgit:git-switch[1] or 56 linkgit:git-checkout[1] when switching branch. 57 statusUoption:: 58 Advise to consider using the `-u` option to linkgit:git-status[1] 59 when the command takes more than 2 seconds to enumerate untracked 60 files. 61 commitBeforeMerge:: 62 Advice shown when linkgit:git-merge[1] refuses to 63 merge to avoid overwriting local changes. 64 resetQuiet:: 65 Advice to consider using the `--quiet` option to linkgit:git-reset[1] 66 when the command takes more than 2 seconds to enumerate unstaged 67 changes after reset. 68 resolveConflict:: 69 Advice shown by various commands when conflicts 70 prevent the operation from being performed. 71 sequencerInUse:: 72 Advice shown when a sequencer command is already in progress. 73 implicitIdentity:: 74 Advice on how to set your identity configuration when 75 your information is guessed from the system username and 76 domain name. 77 detachedHead:: 78 Advice shown when you used 79 linkgit:git-switch[1] or linkgit:git-checkout[1] 80 to move to the detach HEAD state, to instruct how to 81 create a local branch after the fact. 82 checkoutAmbiguousRemoteBranchName:: 83 Advice shown when the argument to 84 linkgit:git-checkout[1] and linkgit:git-switch[1] 85 ambiguously resolves to a 86 remote tracking branch on more than one remote in 87 situations where an unambiguous argument would have 88 otherwise caused a remote-tracking branch to be 89 checked out. See the `checkout.defaultRemote` 90 configuration variable for how to set a given remote 91 to used by default in some situations where this 92 advice would be printed. 93 amWorkDir:: 94 Advice that shows the location of the patch file when 95 linkgit:git-am[1] fails to apply it. 96 rmHints:: 97 In case of failure in the output of linkgit:git-rm[1], 98 show directions on how to proceed from the current state. 99 addEmbeddedRepo:: 100 Advice on what to do when you've accidentally added one 101 git repo inside of another. 102 ignoredHook:: 103 Advice shown if a hook is ignored because the hook is not 104 set as executable. 105 waitingForEditor:: 106 Print a message to the terminal whenever Git is waiting for 107 editor input from the user. 108 nestedTag:: 109 Advice shown if a user attempts to recursively tag a tag object. 110--
