color.diff.<slot>::
Use customized color for diff colorization. `<slot>` specifies
which part of the patch to use the specified color, and is one

(hunk header), 'func' (function in hunk header), `old` (removed lines),
`new` (added lines), `commit` (commit headers), or `whitespace`
(highlighting whitespace errors).
object to a worktree file upon checkout. See

+fsck.<msg-id>::
+ Allows overriding the message type (error, warn or ignore) of a
+ specific message ID such as `missingEmail`.
++
+For convenience, fsck prefixes the error/warning with the message ID,
+e.g. "missingEmail: invalid author/committer line - missing email" means
+that setting `fsck.missingEmail = ignore` will hide that issue.
++
+This feature is intended to support working with legacy repositories
+which cannot be repaired without disruptive changes.
+
+fsck.skipList::
+ The path to a sorted list of object names (i.e. one SHA-1 per
+ line) that are known to be broken in a non-fatal way and should
+ be ignored. This feature is useful when an established project
+ should be accepted despite early commits containing errors that
+ can be safely ignored such as invalid committer email addresses.
+ Note: corrupt objects cannot be skipped with this setting.
+
gc.aggressiveDepth::
The depth parameter used in the delta compression
algorithm used by 'git gc --aggressive'. This defaults
Defaults to false. If not set, the value of `transfer.fsckObjects`
is used instead.
+receive.fsck.<msg-id>::
+ When `receive.fsckObjects` is set to true, errors can be switched
+ to warnings and vice versa by configuring the `receive.fsck.<msg-id>`
+ setting where the `<msg-id>` is the fsck message ID and the value
+ is one of `error`, `warn` or `ignore`. For convenience, fsck prefixes
+ the error/warning with the message ID, e.g. "missingEmail: invalid
+ author/committer line - missing email" means that setting
+ `receive.fsck.missingEmail = ignore` will hide that issue.
++
+This feature is intended to support working with legacy repositories
+which would not pass pushing when `receive.fsckObjects = true`, allowing
+the host to accept repositories with certain known issues but still catch
+other issues.

When `uploadpack.hideRefs` is in effect, allow `upload-pack`

of a hidden ref (by default, such a request is rejected).

uploadpack.keepAlive::
When `upload-pack` has started `pack-objects`, there may be a
