+
Common unit suffixes of 'k', 'm', or 'g' are supported.
+core.excludesfile::
+ In addition to '.gitignore' (per-directory) and
+ '.git/info/exclude', git looks into this file for patterns
+ of files which are not meant to be tracked. See
+ gitlink:gitignore[5].
+
alias.*::
Command aliases for the gitlink:git[1] command wrapper - e.g.
after defining "alias.last = cat-file commit HEAD", the invocation
Tells `git-apply` how to handle whitespaces, in the same way
as the '--whitespace' option. See gitlink:git-apply[1].
+branch.autosetupmerge::
+ Tells `git-branch` and `git-checkout` to setup new branches
+ so that gitlink:git-pull[1] will appropriately merge from that
+ remote branch. Note that even if this option is not set,
+ this behavior can be chosen per-branch using the `--track`
+ and `--no-track` options. This option defaults to false.
+
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".
branch.<name>.merge to the desired branch, and use the special setting
`.` (a period) for branch.<name>.remote.
+clean.requireForce::
+ A boolean to make git-clean do nothing unless given -f or -n. Defaults
+ to false.
+
color.branch::
A boolean to enable/disable color in the output of
gitlink:git-branch[1]. May be set to `true` (or `always`),
causes the client to treat all files as binary files which suppresses
any newline munging it otherwise might do. A work-around for the
fact that there is no way yet to set single files to mode '-kb'.
+
+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
+ gitlink: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 gitlink: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
+ gitlink:git-cvsserver[1] for details).
+
+All gitcvs variables except for 'gitcvs.allbinary' can also specifed
+as 'gitcvs.<access_method>.<varname>' (where 'access_method' is one
+of "ext" and "pserver") to make them apply only for the given access
+method.
+

merge.verbosity::
Controls the amount of output shown by the recursive merge
The size of the window used by gitlink:git-pack-objects[1] when no
window size is given on the command line. Defaults to 10.
+pack.depth::
+ The maximum delta depth used by gitlink:git-pack-objects[1] when no
+ maximum depth is given on the command line. Defaults to 50.
+
pull.octopus::
The default merge strategy to use when pulling multiple branches
at once.
user.email::
Your email address to be recorded in any newly created commits.
