'GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY'::
If the object storage directory is specified via this
variable when it is invoked as the top level command by the
end user, to be recorded in the body of the reflog.
+`GIT_REF_PARANOIA`::
+ If set to `1`, include broken or badly named refs when iterating
+ over lists of refs. In a normal, non-corrupted repository, this
+ does nothing. However, enabling it may help git to detect and
+ abort some operations in the presence of broken refs. Git sets
+ this variable automatically when performing destructive
+ operations like linkgit:git-prune[1]. You should not need to set
+ it yourself unless you want to be paranoid about making sure
+ an operation has touched every ref (e.g., because you are
+ cloning a repository to make a backup).
