See linkgit:git-update-index[1]. `keep` by default.
core.checkStat::
- Determines which stat fields to match between the index
- and work tree. The user can set this to 'default' or
- 'minimal'. Default (or explicitly 'default'), is to check
- all fields, including the sub-second part of mtime and ctime.
+ When missing or is set to `default`, many fields in the stat
+ structure are checked to detect if a file has been modified
+ since Git looked at it. When this configuration variable is
+ set to `minimal`, sub-second part of mtime and ctime, the
+ uid and gid of the owner of the file, the inode number (and
+ the device number, if Git was compiled to use it), are
+ excluded from the check among these fields, leaving only the
+ whole-second part of mtime (and ctime, if `core.trustCtime`
+ is set) and the filesize to be checked.
++
+There are implementations of Git that do not leave usable values in
+some fields (e.g. JGit); by excluding these fields from the
+comparison, the `minimal` mode may help interoperability when the
+same repository is used by these other systems at the same time.

retry for 1 second).
-sequence.editor::
- Text editor used by `git rebase -i` for editing the rebase instruction file.
- The value is meant to be interpreted by the shell when it is used.
- It can be overridden by the `GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR` environment variable.
- When not configured the default commit message editor is used instead.
-
core.pager::
Text viewer for use by Git commands (e.g., 'less'). The value
is meant to be interpreted by the shell. The order of preference
This setting defaults to "refs/notes/commits", and it can be overridden by
the `GIT_NOTES_REF` environment variable. See linkgit:git-notes[1].
-gc.commitGraph::
- If true, then gc will rewrite the commit-graph file when
- linkgit:git-gc[1] is run. When using linkgit:git-gc[1]
- '--auto' the commit-graph will be updated if housekeeping is
- required. Default is false. See linkgit:git-commit-graph[1]
- for details.
+core.commitGraph::
+ If true, then git will read the commit-graph file (if it exists)

branch.<name>.remote::
When on branch <name>, it tells 'git fetch' and 'git push'
which remote to fetch from/push to. The remote to push to
remote branch. This setting might be used for other checkout-like
commands or functionality in the future.
+checkout.optimizeNewBranch::
+ Optimizes the performance of "git checkout -b <new_branch>" when
+ using sparse-checkout. When set to true, git will not update the
+ repo based on the current sparse-checkout settings. This means it
+ will not update the skip-worktree bit in the index nor add/remove

A boolean to make git-clean do nothing unless given -f,
-i or -n. Defaults to true.
'git-diff-{asterisk}' plumbing commands. Can be overridden on the
command line with the `--color[=<when>]` option.
-diff.colorMoved::
- If set to either a valid `<mode>` or a true value, moved lines
- in a diff are colored differently, for details of valid modes
- see '--color-moved' in linkgit:git-diff[1]. If simply set to
- true the default color mode will be used. When set to false,

- When moved lines are colored using e.g. the `diff.colorMoved` setting,
- this option controls the `<mode>` how spaces are treated
- for details of valid modes see '--color-moved-ws' in linkgit:git-diff[1].
-
color.diff.<slot>::
Use customized color for diff colorization. `<slot>` specifies
which part of the patch to use the specified color, and is one
(highlighting whitespace errors), `oldMoved` (deleted lines),
`newMoved` (added lines), `oldMovedDimmed`, `oldMovedAlternative`,
`oldMovedAlternativeDimmed`, `newMovedDimmed`, `newMovedAlternative`

Use customized color for push errors.
+color.remote::
+ If set, keywords at the start of the line are highlighted. The
+ keywords are "error", "warning", "hint" and "success", and are

+color.remote.<slot>::
+ Use customized color for each remote keyword. `<slot>` may be
+ `hint`, `warning`, `success` or `error` which match the
+ corresponding keyword.

A boolean to enable/disable color in the output of
linkgit:git-show-branch[1]. May be set to `always`,
operation complete faster, especially on slow filesystems. If
not set, the value of `transfer.unpackLimit` is used instead.
-fetch.recurseSubmodules::
- This option can be either set to a boolean value or to 'on-demand'.
- Setting it to a boolean changes the behavior of fetch and pull to
- unconditionally recurse into submodules when set to true or to not
- recurse at all when set to false. When set to 'on-demand' (the default
- value), fetch and pull will only recurse into a populated submodule
- when its superproject retrieves a commit that updates the submodule's
- reference.
-
-fetch.fsckObjects::
- If it is set to true, git-fetch-pack will check all fetched
- objects. See `transfer.fsckObjects` for what's
- checked. Defaults to false. If not set, the value of
- `transfer.fsckObjects` is used instead.
-
-fetch.fsck.<msg-id>::
- Acts like `fsck.<msg-id>`, but is used by
- linkgit:git-fetch-pack[1] instead of linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See
- the `fsck.<msg-id>` documentation for details.
-
-fetch.fsck.skipList::
- Acts like `fsck.skipList`, but is used by
- linkgit:git-fetch-pack[1] instead of linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See
- the `fsck.skipList` documentation for details.
-
-fetch.unpackLimit::
- If the number of objects fetched over the Git native
- transfer is below this
- limit, then the objects will be unpacked into loose object
- files. However if the number of received objects equals or
- exceeds this limit then the received pack will be stored as
- a pack, after adding any missing delta bases. Storing the
- pack from a push can make the push operation complete faster,
- especially on slow filesystems. If not set, the value of
- `transfer.unpackLimit` is used instead.
-
-fetch.prune::
- If true, fetch will automatically behave as if the `--prune`
- option was given on the command line. See also `remote.<name>.prune`
- and the PRUNING section of linkgit:git-fetch[1].
-
-fetch.pruneTags::
- If true, fetch will automatically behave as if the
- `refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*` refspec was provided when pruning,
- if not set already. This allows for setting both this option
- and `fetch.prune` to maintain a 1=1 mapping to upstream
- refs. See also `remote.<name>.pruneTags` and the PRUNING
- section of linkgit:git-fetch[1].
-
-fetch.output::
- Control how ref update status is printed. Valid values are
- `full` and `compact`. Default value is `full`. See section
- OUTPUT in linkgit:git-fetch[1] for detail.
-
-fetch.negotiationAlgorithm::
- Control how information about the commits in the local repository is
- sent when negotiating the contents of the packfile to be sent by the
- server. Set to "skipping" to use an algorithm that skips commits in an
- effort to converge faster, but may result in a larger-than-necessary
- packfile; The default is "default" which instructs Git to use the default algorithm
- that never skips commits (unless the server has acknowledged it or one
- of its descendants).
- Unknown values will cause 'git fetch' to error out.
-+
-See also the `--negotiation-tip` option for linkgit:git-fetch[1].
-
-format.attach::
- Enable multipart/mixed attachments as the default for
- 'format-patch'. The value can also be a double quoted string
- which will enable attachments as the default and set the
- value as the boundary. See the --attach option in
- linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
-
-format.from::
- Provides the default value for the `--from` option to format-patch.
- Accepts a boolean value, or a name and email address. If false,
- format-patch defaults to `--no-from`, using commit authors directly in
- the "From:" field of patch mails. If true, format-patch defaults to
- `--from`, using your committer identity in the "From:" field of patch
- mails and including a "From:" field in the body of the patch mail if
- different. If set to a non-boolean value, format-patch uses that
- value instead of your committer identity. Defaults to false.
-
-format.numbered::
- A boolean which can enable or disable sequence numbers in patch
- subjects. It defaults to "auto" which enables it only if there
- is more than one patch. It can be enabled or disabled for all
- messages by setting it to "true" or "false". See --numbered
- option in linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
-
-format.headers::
- Additional email headers to include in a patch to be submitted
- by mail. See linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
-
-format.to::
-format.cc::
- Additional recipients to include in a patch to be submitted
- by mail. See the --to and --cc options in
- linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
-
-format.subjectPrefix::
- The default for format-patch is to output files with the '[PATCH]'
- subject prefix. Use this variable to change that prefix.
-
-format.signature::
- The default for format-patch is to output a signature containing
- the Git version number. Use this variable to change that default.
- Set this variable to the empty string ("") to suppress
- signature generation.
-
-format.signatureFile::
- Works just like format.signature except the contents of the
- file specified by this variable will be used as the signature.
-
-format.suffix::
- The default for format-patch is to output files with the suffix
- `.patch`. Use this variable to change that suffix (make sure to
- include the dot if you want it).
-
-format.pretty::
- The default pretty format for log/show/whatchanged command,
- See linkgit:git-log[1], linkgit:git-show[1],
- linkgit:git-whatchanged[1].
-
-format.thread::
- The default threading style for 'git format-patch'. Can be
- a boolean value, or `shallow` or `deep`. `shallow` threading
- makes every mail a reply to the head of the series,
- where the head is chosen from the cover letter, the
- `--in-reply-to`, and the first patch mail, in this order.
- `deep` threading makes every mail a reply to the previous one.
- A true boolean value is the same as `shallow`, and a false
- value disables threading.
-
-format.signOff::
- A boolean value which lets you enable the `-s/--signoff` option of
- format-patch by default. *Note:* Adding the Signed-off-by: line to a
- patch should be a conscious act and means that you certify you have
- the rights to submit this work under the same open source license.
- Please see the 'SubmittingPatches' document for further discussion.
-
-format.coverLetter::
- A boolean that controls whether to generate a cover-letter when
- format-patch is invoked, but in addition can be set to "auto", to
- generate a cover-letter only when there's more than one patch.
-
-format.outputDirectory::
- Set a custom directory to store the resulting files instead of the
- current working directory.
-
-format.useAutoBase::
- A boolean value which lets you enable the `--base=auto` option of
- format-patch by default.

fall back on the `fsck.skipList` configuration if they aren't set. To
uniformly configure the same fsck settings in different circumstances
all three of them they must all set to the same values.
++
+Older versions of Git (before 2.20) documented that the object names
+list should be sorted. This was never a requirement, the object names
+could appear in any order, but when reading the list we tracked whether
+the list was sorted for the purposes of an internal binary search
+implementation, which could save itself some work with an already sorted
+list. Unless you had a humongous list there was no reason to go out of
+your way to pre-sort the list. After Git version 2.20 a hash implementation
+is used instead, so there's now no reason to pre-sort the list.
gc.aggressiveDepth::
The depth parameter used in the delta compression
will be repacked. After this the number of packs should go below
gc.autoPackLimit and gc.bigPackThreshold should be respected again.
+gc.writeCommitGraph::
+ If true, then gc will rewrite the commit-graph file when
+ linkgit:git-gc[1] is run. When using linkgit:git-gc[1]
+ '--auto' the commit-graph will be updated if housekeeping is
+ required. Default is false. See linkgit:git-commit-graph[1]
+ for details.
+
gc.logExpiry::
- If the file gc.log exists, then `git gc --auto` won't run
+ If the file gc.log exists, then `git gc --auto` will print
+ its content and exit with status zero instead of running
unless that file is more than 'gc.logExpiry' old. Default is
"1.day". See `gc.pruneExpire` for more ways to specify its
value.
You can also use more human-readable "1.month.ago", etc.
The default is 15 days. See linkgit:git-rerere[1].
-gitcvs.commitMsgAnnotation::
- Append this string to each commit message. Set to empty string
- to disable this feature. Defaults to "via git-CVS emulator".
-
-gitcvs.enabled::
- Whether the CVS server interface is enabled for this repository.
- See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1].
-
-gitcvs.logFile::
- Path to a log file where the CVS server interface well... logs
- various stuff. See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1].
-
-gitcvs.usecrlfattr::
- If true, the server will look up the end-of-line conversion
- attributes for files to determine the `-k` modes to use. If
- the attributes force Git to treat a file as text,
- the `-k` mode will be left blank so CVS clients will
- treat it as text. If they suppress text conversion, the file
- will be set with '-kb' mode, which suppresses any newline munging
- the client might otherwise do. If the attributes do not allow
- the file type to be determined, then `gitcvs.allBinary` is
- used. See linkgit:gitattributes[5].
-
-gitcvs.allBinary::
- This is used if `gitcvs.usecrlfattr` does not resolve
- the correct '-kb' mode to use. If true, all
- unresolved files are sent to the client in
- mode '-kb'. This causes the client to treat them
- as binary files, which suppresses any newline munging it
- otherwise might do. Alternatively, if it is set to "guess",
- then the contents of the file are examined to decide if
- it is binary, similar to `core.autocrlf`.
-
-gitcvs.dbName::
- Database used by git-cvsserver to cache revision information
- derived from the Git repository. The exact meaning depends on the
- used database driver, for SQLite (which is the default driver) this
- is a filename. Supports variable substitution (see
- linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details). May not contain semicolons (`;`).
- Default: '%Ggitcvs.%m.sqlite'
-
-gitcvs.dbDriver::
- Used Perl DBI driver. You can specify any available driver
- for this here, but it might not work. git-cvsserver is tested
- with 'DBD::SQLite', reported to work with 'DBD::Pg', and
- reported *not* to work with 'DBD::mysql'. Experimental feature.
- May not contain double colons (`:`). Default: 'SQLite'.
- See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1].
-
-gitcvs.dbUser, gitcvs.dbPass::
- Database user and password. Only useful if setting `gitcvs.dbDriver`,
- since SQLite has no concept of database users and/or passwords.
- 'gitcvs.dbUser' supports variable substitution (see
- linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details).
-
-gitcvs.dbTableNamePrefix::
- Database table name prefix. Prepended to the names of any
- database tables used, allowing a single database to be used
- for several repositories. Supports variable substitution (see
- linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details). Any non-alphabetic
- characters will be replaced with underscores.
-
-All gitcvs variables except for `gitcvs.usecrlfattr` and
-`gitcvs.allBinary` can also be specified as
-'gitcvs.<access_method>.<varname>' (where 'access_method'

-pull.ff::
- By default, Git does not create an extra merge commit when merging
- a commit that is a descendant of the current commit. Instead, the
- tip of the current branch is fast-forwarded. When set to `false`,
- this variable tells Git to create an extra merge commit in such
- a case (equivalent to giving the `--no-ff` option from the command
- line). When set to `only`, only such fast-forward merges are
- allowed (equivalent to giving the `--ff-only` option from the
- command line). This setting overrides `merge.ff` when pulling.
-
-pull.rebase::
- When true, rebase branches on top of the fetched branch, instead
- of merging the default branch from the default remote when "git
- pull" is run. See "branch.<name>.rebase" for setting this on a
- per-branch basis.
-+
-When `merges`, pass the `--rebase-merges` option to 'git rebase'
-so that the local merge commits are included in the rebase (see

-+
-When preserve, also pass `--preserve-merges` along to 'git rebase'
-so that locally committed merge commits will not be flattened
-by running 'git pull'.
-+
-When the value is `interactive`, the rebase is run in interactive mode.

- Defines the action `git push` should take if no refspec is
- explicitly given. Different values are well-suited for
- specific workflows; for instance, in a purely central workflow
- (i.e. the fetch source is equal to the push destination),
- `upstream` is probably what you want. Possible values are:
-+
---
-
-* `nothing` - do not push anything (error out) unless a refspec is
- explicitly given. This is primarily meant for people who want to
- avoid mistakes by always being explicit.
-
-* `current` - push the current branch to update a branch with the same
- name on the receiving end. Works in both central and non-central
- workflows.
-
-* `upstream` - push the current branch back to the branch whose
- changes are usually integrated into the current branch (which is
- called `@{upstream}`). This mode only makes sense if you are
- pushing to the same repository you would normally pull from
- (i.e. central workflow).
-
-* `tracking` - This is a deprecated synonym for `upstream`.
-
-* `simple` - in centralized workflow, work like `upstream` with an
- added safety to refuse to push if the upstream branch's name is
- different from the local one.
-+
-When pushing to a remote that is different from the remote you normally
-pull from, work as `current`. This is the safest option and is suited
-for beginners.
-+
-This mode has become the default in Git 2.0.
-
-* `matching` - push all branches having the same name on both ends.
- This makes the repository you are pushing to remember the set of
- branches that will be pushed out (e.g. if you always push 'maint'
- and 'master' there and no other branches, the repository you push
- to will have these two branches, and your local 'maint' and
- 'master' will be pushed there).
-+
-To use this mode effectively, you have to make sure _all_ the
-branches you would push out are ready to be pushed out before
-running 'git push', as the whole point of this mode is to allow you
-to push all of the branches in one go. If you usually finish work
-on only one branch and push out the result, while other branches are
-unfinished, this mode is not for you. Also this mode is not
-suitable for pushing into a shared central repository, as other
-people may add new branches there, or update the tip of existing
-branches outside your control.

- override a value from a lower-priority config file. An explicit
- command-line flag always overrides this config option.
-
-push.pushOption::
- When no `--push-option=<option>` argument is given from the
- command line, `git push` behaves as if each <value> of
- this variable is given as `--push-option=<value>`.
-+
-This is a multi-valued variable, and an empty value can be used in a
-higher priority configuration file (e.g. `.git/config` in a
-repository) to clear the values inherited from a lower priority
-configuration files (e.g. `$HOME/.gitconfig`).
-+
--
-Example:
-
-/etc/gitconfig
- push.pushoption = a
- push.pushoption = b
-
-~/.gitconfig
- push.pushoption = c
+include::pull-config.txt[]
-repo/.git/config
- push.pushoption =
- push.pushoption = b
-
-This will result in only b (a and c are cleared).
-
---
-
-push.recurseSubmodules::
- Make sure all submodule commits used by the revisions to be pushed
- are available on a remote-tracking branch. If the value is 'check'
- then Git will verify that all submodule commits that changed in the
- revisions to be pushed are available on at least one remote of the
- submodule. If any commits are missing, the push will be aborted and
- exit with non-zero status. If the value is 'on-demand' then all
- submodules that changed in the revisions to be pushed will be
- pushed. If on-demand was not able to push all necessary revisions
- it will also be aborted and exit with non-zero status. If the value
- is 'no' then default behavior of ignoring submodules when pushing
- is retained. You may override this configuration at time of push by
- specifying '--recurse-submodules=check|on-demand|no'.
+include::push-config.txt[]
include::rebase-config.txt[]
-receive.advertiseAtomic::
- By default, git-receive-pack will advertise the atomic push
- capability to its clients. If you don't want to advertise this
- capability, set this variable to false.
-
-receive.advertisePushOptions::
- When set to true, git-receive-pack will advertise the push options
- capability to its clients. False by default.
-
-receive.autogc::
- By default, git-receive-pack will run "git-gc --auto" after
- receiving data from git-push and updating refs. You can stop
- it by setting this variable to false.
-
-receive.certNonceSeed::
- By setting this variable to a string, `git receive-pack`
- will accept a `git push --signed` and verifies it by using
- a "nonce" protected by HMAC using this string as a secret
- key.
-
-receive.certNonceSlop::
- When a `git push --signed` sent a push certificate with a
- "nonce" that was issued by a receive-pack serving the same
- repository within this many seconds, export the "nonce"
- found in the certificate to `GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE` to the
- hooks (instead of what the receive-pack asked the sending
- side to include). This may allow writing checks in
- `pre-receive` and `post-receive` a bit easier. Instead of
- checking `GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE_SLOP` environment variable
- that records by how many seconds the nonce is stale to
- decide if they want to accept the certificate, they only
- can check `GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE_STATUS` is `OK`.
-
-receive.fsckObjects::
- If it is set to true, git-receive-pack will check all received
- objects. See `transfer.fsckObjects` for what's checked.
- Defaults to false. If not set, the value of
- `transfer.fsckObjects` is used instead.
-
-receive.fsck.<msg-id>::
- Acts like `fsck.<msg-id>`, but is used by
- linkgit:git-receive-pack[1] instead of
- linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See the `fsck.<msg-id>` documentation for
- details.
-
-receive.fsck.skipList::
- Acts like `fsck.skipList`, but is used by
- linkgit:git-receive-pack[1] instead of
- linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See the `fsck.skipList` documentation for
- details.
-
-receive.keepAlive::
- After receiving the pack from the client, `receive-pack` may
- produce no output (if `--quiet` was specified) while processing
- the pack, causing some networks to drop the TCP connection.
- With this option set, if `receive-pack` does not transmit
- any data in this phase for `receive.keepAlive` seconds, it will
- send a short keepalive packet. The default is 5 seconds; set
- to 0 to disable keepalives entirely.
-
-receive.unpackLimit::
- If the number of objects received in a push is below this
- limit then the objects will be unpacked into loose object
- files. However if the number of received objects equals or
- exceeds this limit then the received pack will be stored as
- a pack, after adding any missing delta bases. Storing the
- pack from a push can make the push operation complete faster,
- especially on slow filesystems. If not set, the value of
- `transfer.unpackLimit` is used instead.
-
-receive.maxInputSize::
- If the size of the incoming pack stream is larger than this
- limit, then git-receive-pack will error out, instead of
- accepting the pack file. If not set or set to 0, then the size
- is unlimited.
-
-receive.denyDeletes::
- If set to true, git-receive-pack will deny a ref update that deletes
- the ref. Use this to prevent such a ref deletion via a push.
-
-receive.denyDeleteCurrent::
- If set to true, git-receive-pack will deny a ref update that
- deletes the currently checked out branch of a non-bare repository.
-
-receive.denyCurrentBranch::
- If set to true or "refuse", git-receive-pack will deny a ref update
- to the currently checked out branch of a non-bare repository.
- Such a push is potentially dangerous because it brings the HEAD
- out of sync with the index and working tree. If set to "warn",
- print a warning of such a push to stderr, but allow the push to
- proceed. If set to false or "ignore", allow such pushes with no
- message. Defaults to "refuse".
-+
-Another option is "updateInstead" which will update the working
-tree if pushing into the current branch. This option is
-intended for synchronizing working directories when one side is not easily
-accessible via interactive ssh (e.g. a live web site, hence the requirement
-that the working directory be clean). This mode also comes in handy when
-developing inside a VM to test and fix code on different Operating Systems.
-+
-By default, "updateInstead" will refuse the push if the working tree or
-the index have any difference from the HEAD, but the `push-to-checkout`
-hook can be used to customize this. See linkgit:githooks[5].
-
-receive.denyNonFastForwards::
- If set to true, git-receive-pack will deny a ref update which is
- not a fast-forward. Use this to prevent such an update via a push,
- even if that push is forced. This configuration variable is
- set when initializing a shared repository.
-
-receive.hideRefs::
- This variable is the same as `transfer.hideRefs`, but applies
- only to `receive-pack` (and so affects pushes, but not fetches).
- An attempt to update or delete a hidden ref by `git push` is
- rejected.
-
-receive.updateServerInfo::
- If set to true, git-receive-pack will run git-update-server-info
- after receiving data from git-push and updating refs.
-
-receive.shallowUpdate::
- If set to true, .git/shallow can be updated when new refs
- require new shallow roots. Otherwise those refs are rejected.
+include::receive-config.txt[]
remote.pushDefault::
The remote to push to by default. Overrides
index is being written (either via `--write-bitmap-index` or
`repack.writeBitmaps`).
+repack.useDeltaIslands::
+ If set to true, makes `git repack` act as if `--delta-islands`
+ was passed. Defaults to `false`.
+
repack.writeBitmaps::
When true, git will write a bitmap index when packing all
objects to disk (e.g., when `git repack -a` is run). This
`$GIT_DIR`, e.g. if "rerere" was previously used in the
repository.
-sendemail.identity::
- A configuration identity. When given, causes values in the
- 'sendemail.<identity>' subsection to take precedence over
- values in the 'sendemail' section. The default identity is
- the value of `sendemail.identity`.
-

- See linkgit:git-send-email[1] for description. Note that this
- setting is not subject to the 'identity' mechanism.
-

- Deprecated alias for 'sendemail.smtpEncryption = ssl'.
-
-sendemail.smtpsslcertpath::
- Path to ca-certificates (either a directory or a single file).
- Set it to an empty string to disable certificate verification.
-

- one connection.
- See also the `--batch-size` option of linkgit:git-send-email[1].

option will show diffstat of the stash entry. Defaults to true.
See description of 'show' command in linkgit:git-stash[1].
-submodule.<name>.url::
- The URL for a submodule. This variable is copied from the .gitmodules
- file to the git config via 'git submodule init'. The user can change
- the configured URL before obtaining the submodule via 'git submodule
- update'. If neither submodule.<name>.active or submodule.active are
- set, the presence of this variable is used as a fallback to indicate
- whether the submodule is of interest to git commands.
- See linkgit:git-submodule[1] and linkgit:gitmodules[5] for details.
-
-submodule.<name>.update::
- The method by which a submodule is updated by 'git submodule update',
- which is the only affected command, others such as
- 'git checkout --recurse-submodules' are unaffected. It exists for
- historical reasons, when 'git submodule' was the only command to
- interact with submodules; settings like `submodule.active`
- and `pull.rebase` are more specific. It is populated by
- `git submodule init` from the linkgit:gitmodules[5] file.
- See description of 'update' command in linkgit:git-submodule[1].
-
-submodule.<name>.branch::
- The remote branch name for a submodule, used by `git submodule
- update --remote`. Set this option to override the value found in
- the `.gitmodules` file. See linkgit:git-submodule[1] and
- linkgit:gitmodules[5] for details.
-
-submodule.<name>.fetchRecurseSubmodules::
- This option can be used to control recursive fetching of this
- submodule. It can be overridden by using the --[no-]recurse-submodules
- command-line option to "git fetch" and "git pull".
- This setting will override that from in the linkgit:gitmodules[5]
- file.
-
-submodule.<name>.ignore::
- Defines under what circumstances "git status" and the diff family show
- a submodule as modified. When set to "all", it will never be considered
- modified (but it will nonetheless show up in the output of status and
- commit when it has been staged), "dirty" will ignore all changes
- to the submodules work tree and
- takes only differences between the HEAD of the submodule and the commit
- recorded in the superproject into account. "untracked" will additionally
- let submodules with modified tracked files in their work tree show up.
- Using "none" (the default when this option is not set) also shows
- submodules that have untracked files in their work tree as changed.
- This setting overrides any setting made in .gitmodules for this submodule,
- both settings can be overridden on the command line by using the
- "--ignore-submodules" option. The 'git submodule' commands are not
- affected by this setting.
-
-submodule.<name>.active::
- Boolean value indicating if the submodule is of interest to git
- commands. This config option takes precedence over the
- submodule.active config option. See linkgit:gitsubmodules[7] for
- details.
-
-submodule.active::
- A repeated field which contains a pathspec used to match against a
- submodule's path to determine if the submodule is of interest to git
- commands. See linkgit:gitsubmodules[7] for details.
-
-submodule.recurse::
- Specifies if commands recurse into submodules by default. This
- applies to all commands that have a `--recurse-submodules` option,
- except `clone`.
- Defaults to false.
-
-submodule.fetchJobs::
- Specifies how many submodules are fetched/cloned at the same time.
- A positive integer allows up to that number of submodules fetched
- in parallel. A value of 0 will give some reasonable default.
- If unset, it defaults to 1.
-
-submodule.alternateLocation::
- Specifies how the submodules obtain alternates when submodules are
- cloned. Possible values are `no`, `superproject`.
- By default `no` is assumed, which doesn't add references. When the
- value is set to `superproject` the submodule to be cloned computes
- its alternates location relative to the superprojects alternate.
-
-submodule.alternateErrorStrategy::
- Specifies how to treat errors with the alternates for a submodule
- as computed via `submodule.alternateLocation`. Possible values are
- `ignore`, `info`, `die`. Default is `die`.

was run. I.e., `upload-pack` will feed input intended for
`pack-objects` to the hook, and expects a completed packfile on
stdout.
-
-uploadpack.allowFilter::
- If this option is set, `upload-pack` will support partial
- clone and partial fetch object filtering.
+
Note that this configuration variable is ignored if it is seen in the
repository-level config (this is a safety measure against fetching from
untrusted repositories).
+uploadpack.allowFilter::
+ If this option is set, `upload-pack` will support partial
+ clone and partial fetch object filtering.
