core.worktree::
Set the path to the root of the working tree.
+ If GIT_COMMON_DIR environment variable is set, core.worktree
+ is ignored and not used for determining the root of working tree.
This can be overridden by the GIT_WORK_TREE environment
variable and the '--work-tree' command-line option.
The value can be an absolute path or relative to the path to
If set to "auto", `git-commit` would select a character that is not
the beginning character of any line in existing commit messages.
+core.packedRefsTimeout::
+ The length of time, in milliseconds, to retry when trying to
+ lock the `packed-refs` file. Value 0 means not to retry at
+ all; -1 means to try indefinitely. Default is 1000 (i.e.,
+ retry for 1 second).
+
sequence.editor::
Text editor used by `git rebase -i` for editing the rebase instruction file.
The value is meant to be interpreted by the shell when it is used.
object to a worktree file upon checkout. See
linkgit:gitattributes[5] for details.
+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
"now" may be used to disable this grace period and always prune
unreachable objects immediately.
+gc.pruneWorktreesExpire::
+ When 'git gc' is run, it will call
+ 'prune --worktrees --expire 3.months.ago'.
+ Override the grace period with this config variable. The value
+ "now" may be used to disable the grace period and prune
+ $GIT_DIR/worktrees immediately.
+
gc.reflogExpire::
gc.<pattern>.reflogExpire::
'git reflog expire' removes reflog entries older than
If set, store cookies received during requests to the file specified by
http.cookieFile. Has no effect if http.cookieFile is unset.
+http.sslCipherList::
+ A list of SSL ciphers to use when negotiating an SSL connection.
+ The available ciphers depend on whether libcurl was built against
+ NSS or OpenSSL and the particular configuration of the crypto
+ library in use. Internally this sets the 'CURLOPT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST'
+ option; see the libcurl documentation for more details on the format
+ of this list.
++
+Can be overridden by the 'GIT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST' environment variable.
+To force git to use libcurl's default cipher list and ignore any
+explicit http.sslCipherList option, set 'GIT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST' to the
+empty string.
+
http.sslVerify::
Whether to verify the SSL certificate when fetching or pushing
over HTTPS. Can be overridden by the 'GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY' environment
successful rebase might result in non-trivial conflicts.
Defaults to false.
+rebase.missingCommitsCheck::
+ If set to "warn", git rebase -i will print a warning if some
+ commits are removed (e.g. a line was deleted), however the
+ rebase will still proceed. If set to "error", it will print
+ the previous warning and stop the rebase, 'git rebase
+ --edit-todo' can then be used to correct the error. If set to
+ "ignore", no checking is done.
+ To drop a commit without warning or error, use the `drop`
+ command in the todo-list.
+ Defaults to "ignore".
+
+rebase.instructionFormat
+ A format string, as specified in linkgit:git-log[1], to be used for
+ the instruction list during an interactive rebase. The format will automatically
+ have the long commit hash prepended to the format.
+
receive.advertiseAtomic::
By default, git-receive-pack will advertise the atomic push
capability to its clients. If you don't want to this capability
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.
+
+receive.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.

limit then the objects will be unpacked into loose object

+uploadpack.allowTipSHA1InWant::
When `uploadpack.hideRefs` is in effect, allow `upload-pack`
to accept a fetch request that asks for an object at the tip
of a hidden ref (by default, such a request is rejected).
see also `uploadpack.hideRefs`.
+uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant::
+ Allow `upload-pack` to accept a fetch request that asks for an
+ object that is reachable from any ref tip. However, note that
+ calculating object reachability is computationally expensive.
+ Defaults to `false`.
+
uploadpack.keepAlive::
When `upload-pack` has started `pack-objects`, there may be a
quiet period while `pack-objects` prepares the pack. Normally
