This option defaults to never.
branch.<name>.remote::
- When in branch <name>, it tells 'git-fetch' which remote to fetch.
- If this option is not given, 'git-fetch' defaults to remote "origin".
+ When in branch <name>, it tells 'git-fetch' and 'git-push' which
+ remote to fetch from/push to. It defaults to `origin` if no remote is
+ configured. `origin` is also used if you are not on any branch.
branch.<name>.merge::
+ Defines, together with branch.<name>.remote, the upstream branch
+ for the given branch. It tells 'git-fetch'/'git-pull' which
+ branch to merge and can also affect 'git-push' (see push.default).
When in branch <name>, it tells 'git-fetch' the default
refspec to be marked for merging in FETCH_HEAD. The value is
handled like the remote part of a refspec, and must match a
whitespace errors). The values of these variables may be specified as
in color.branch.<slot>.
+color.grep::
+ When set to `always`, always highlight matches. When `false` (or
+ `never`), never. When set to `true` or `auto`, use color only
+ when the output is written to the terminal. Defaults to `false`.
+
+color.grep.external::
+ The string value of this variable is passed to an external 'grep'
+ command as a command line option if match highlighting is turned
+ on. If set to an empty string, no option is passed at all,
+ turning off coloring for external 'grep' calls; this is the default.
+ For GNU grep, set it to `--color=always` to highlight matches even
+ when a pager is used.
+
+color.grep.match::
+ Use customized color for matches. The value of this variable
+ may be specified as in color.branch.<slot>. It is passed using
+ the environment variables 'GREP_COLOR' and 'GREP_COLORS' when
+ calling an external 'grep'.
+
color.interactive::
When set to `always`, always use colors for interactive prompts
and displays (such as those used by "git-add --interactive").
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.
+
gc.aggressiveWindow::
The window size parameter used in the delta compression
algorithm used by 'git-gc --aggressive'. This defaults
pull.twohead::
The default merge strategy to use when pulling a single branch.
+push.default::
+ Defines the action git push should take if no refspec is given
+ on the command line, no refspec is configured in the remote, and
+ no refspec is implied by any of the options given on the command
+ line. Possible values are:
++
+* `nothing` do not push anything.
+* `matching` push all matching branches.
+ All branches having the same name in both ends are considered to be
+ matching. This is the default.
+* `tracking` push the current branch to the branch it is tracking.
+* `current` push the current branch to a branch of the same name.
+
rebase.stat::
Whether to show a diffstat of what changed upstream since the last
rebase. False by default.
