When false, file names are handled fully transparent by Git,
which is backward compatible with older versions of Git.
+core.protectHFS::
+ If set to true, do not allow checkout of paths that would
+ be considered equivalent to `.git` on an HFS+ filesystem.
+ Defaults to `true` on Mac OS, and `false` elsewhere.
+
+core.protectNTFS::
+ If set to true, do not allow checkout of paths that would
+ cause problems with the NTFS filesystem, e.g. conflict with
+ 8.3 "short" names.
+ Defaults to `true` on Windows, and `false` elsewhere.
+
core.trustctime::
If false, the ctime differences between the index and the
working tree are ignored; useful when the inode change time
for abbreviated object names to stay unique for sufficiently long
time.

add.ignoreErrors::
+add.ignore-errors (deprecated)::
Tells 'git add' to continue adding files when some files cannot be
added due to indexing errors. Equivalent to the '--ignore-errors'
- option of linkgit:git-add[1]. Older versions of Git accept only
- `add.ignore-errors`, which does not follow the usual naming
- convention for configuration variables. Newer versions of Git
- honor `add.ignoreErrors` as well.

alias.*::
Command aliases for the linkgit:git[1] command wrapper - e.g.
confusion and troubles with script usage, aliases that
hide existing Git commands are ignored. Arguments are split by
spaces, the usual shell quoting and escaping is supported.
- quote pair and a backslash can be used to quote them.
+ A quote pair or a backslash can be used to quote them.
+
If the alias expansion is prefixed with an exclamation point,
it will be treated as a shell command. For example, defining
if the file has been updated, otherwise the user is prompted to
indicate the success of the merge.
+mergetool.meld.hasOutput::
+ Older versions of `meld` do not support the `--output` option.
+ Git will attempt to detect whether `meld` supports `--output`
+ by inspecting the output of `meld --help`. Configuring
+ `mergetool.meld.hasOutput` will make Git skip these checks and
+ use the configured value instead. Setting `mergetool.meld.hasOutput`
+ to `true` tells Git to unconditionally use the `--output` option,
+ and `false` avoids using `--output`.
+
mergetool.keepBackup::
After performing a merge, the original file with conflict markers
can be saved as a file with a `.orig` extension. If this variable
true. You should not generally need to turn this off unless
you are debugging pack bitmaps.
-pack.writebitmaps::
+pack.writebitmaps (deprecated)::
This is a deprecated synonym for `repack.writeBitmaps`.

+sendemail.smtpssl (deprecated)::
Deprecated alias for 'sendemail.smtpencryption = ssl'.

showbranch.default::
files which are not currently tracked by Git. Directories which
contain only untracked files, are shown with the directory name
only. Showing untracked files means that Git needs to lstat() all
