+core.autocrlf::
+ If true, makes git convert `CRLF` at the end of lines in text files to

+ writing to the filesystem. The variable can be set to
+ 'input', in which case the conversion happens only while
+ reading from the filesystem but files are written out with

+gitcvs.allbinary::
+ If true, all files are sent to the client in mode '-kb'. This
+ causes the client to treat all files as binary files which suppresses
+ any newline munging it otherwise might do. A work-around for the
+ fact that there is no way yet to set single files to mode '-kb'.

gitcvs.dbname::
Database used by git-cvsserver to cache revision information
