-core.notesRef::
- When showing commit messages, also show notes which are stored in
- the given ref. This ref is expected to contain paths of the form
- ??/*, where the directory name consists of the first two
- characters of the commit name, and the base name consists of
- the remaining 38 characters.
-+
-If such a path exists in the given ref, the referenced blob is read, and
-appended to the commit message, separated by a "Notes:" line. If the
-given ref itself does not exist, it is not an error, but means that no
-notes should be print.
-+
-This setting defaults to "refs/notes/commits", and can be overridden by
-the `GIT_NOTES_REF` environment variable.

- three distinct types of normal output from interactive
+ output. `<slot>` may be `prompt`, `header`, `help` or `error`, for
+ four distinct types of normal output from interactive

'diff' commands, such as 'git-diff-files'.
-diff.suppress-blank-empty::
- A boolean to inhibit the standard behavior of printing a space

-
diff.external::
If this config variable is set, diff generation is not
performed using the internal diff machinery, but using the
will enable basic rename detection. If set to "copies" or
"copy", it will detect copies, as well.
+diff.suppressBlankEmpty::

+ before each empty output line. Defaults to false.
+
+diff.wordRegex::
+ A POSIX Extended Regular Expression used to determine what is a "word"

fetch.unpackLimit::
If the number of objects fetched over the git native

gc.pruneexpire::
When 'git-gc' is run, it will call 'prune --expire 2.weeks.ago'.
- Override the grace period with this config variable.
+ Override the grace period with this config variable. The value
+ "now" may be used to disable this grace period and always prune
+ unreachable objects immediately.
gc.reflogexpire::
'git-reflog expire' removes reflog entries older than

The default is 15 days. See linkgit:git-rerere[1].

linkgit:git-instaweb[1].
+interactive.singlekey::
+ In interactive programs, allow the user to provide one-letter
+ input with a single key (i.e., without hitting enter).
+ Currently this is used only by the `\--patch` mode of

+ ignored if portable keystroke input is not available.
+
log.date::
Set default date-time mode for the log command. Setting log.date
value is similar to using 'git-log'\'s --date option. The value is one of the

normally hide the root commit will now show it. True by default.
+mailmap.file::
+ The location of an augmenting mailmap file. The default
+ mailmap, located in the root of the repository, is loaded
+ first, then the mailmap file pointed to by this variable.

`true` (i.e. keep the backup files).
+mergetool.keepTemporaries::
+ When invoking a custom merge tool, git uses a set of temporary
+ files to pass to the tool. If the tool returns an error and this

+ exited. Defaults to `false`.
+
+mergetool.prompt::
+ Prompt before each invocation of the merge resolution program.
+
pack.window::
The size of the window used by linkgit:git-pack-objects[1] when no
