This setting defaults to "refs/notes/commits", and it can be overridden by
the `GIT_NOTES_REF` environment variable. See linkgit:git-notes[1].
-gc.commitGraph::
- If true, then gc will rewrite the commit-graph file when
- linkgit:git-gc[1] is run. When using linkgit:git-gc[1]
- '--auto' the commit-graph will be updated if housekeeping is
- required. Default is false. See linkgit:git-commit-graph[1]
- for details.
+core.commitGraph::
+ If true, then git will read the commit-graph file (if it exists)
+ to parse the graph structure of commits. Defaults to false. See
+ linkgit:git-commit-graph[1] for more information.
core.useReplaceRefs::
If set to `false`, behave as if the `--no-replace-objects`
operation complete faster, especially on slow filesystems. If
not set, the value of `transfer.unpackLimit` is used instead.
-fetch.recurseSubmodules::
- This option can be either set to a boolean value or to 'on-demand'.
- Setting it to a boolean changes the behavior of fetch and pull to
- unconditionally recurse into submodules when set to true or to not
- recurse at all when set to false. When set to 'on-demand' (the default
- value), fetch and pull will only recurse into a populated submodule
- when its superproject retrieves a commit that updates the submodule's
- reference.
-
-fetch.fsckObjects::
- If it is set to true, git-fetch-pack will check all fetched
- objects. See `transfer.fsckObjects` for what's
- checked. Defaults to false. If not set, the value of
- `transfer.fsckObjects` is used instead.
-
-fetch.fsck.<msg-id>::
- Acts like `fsck.<msg-id>`, but is used by
- linkgit:git-fetch-pack[1] instead of linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See
- the `fsck.<msg-id>` documentation for details.
-
-fetch.fsck.skipList::
- Acts like `fsck.skipList`, but is used by
- linkgit:git-fetch-pack[1] instead of linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See
- the `fsck.skipList` documentation for details.
-
-fetch.unpackLimit::
- If the number of objects fetched over the Git native
- transfer is below this
- limit, then the objects will be unpacked into loose object
- files. However if the number of received objects equals or
- exceeds this limit then the received pack will be stored as
- a pack, after adding any missing delta bases. Storing the
- pack from a push can make the push operation complete faster,
- especially on slow filesystems. If not set, the value of
- `transfer.unpackLimit` is used instead.
+include::fetch-config.txt[]
-fetch.prune::
- If true, fetch will automatically behave as if the `--prune`
- option was given on the command line. See also `remote.<name>.prune`
- and the PRUNING section of linkgit:git-fetch[1].
-
-fetch.pruneTags::
- If true, fetch will automatically behave as if the
- `refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*` refspec was provided when pruning,
- if not set already. This allows for setting both this option
- and `fetch.prune` to maintain a 1=1 mapping to upstream
- refs. See also `remote.<name>.pruneTags` and the PRUNING
- section of linkgit:git-fetch[1].
-
-fetch.output::
- Control how ref update status is printed. Valid values are
- `full` and `compact`. Default value is `full`. See section
- OUTPUT in linkgit:git-fetch[1] for detail.
-
-fetch.negotiationAlgorithm::
- Control how information about the commits in the local repository is
- sent when negotiating the contents of the packfile to be sent by the
- server. Set to "skipping" to use an algorithm that skips commits in an
- effort to converge faster, but may result in a larger-than-necessary
- packfile; The default is "default" which instructs Git to use the default algorithm
- that never skips commits (unless the server has acknowledged it or one
- of its descendants).
- Unknown values will cause 'git fetch' to error out.
-+
-See also the `--negotiation-tip` option for linkgit:git-fetch[1].
-
-format.attach::
- Enable multipart/mixed attachments as the default for
- 'format-patch'. The value can also be a double quoted string
- which will enable attachments as the default and set the
- value as the boundary. See the --attach option in
- linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
-
-format.from::
- Provides the default value for the `--from` option to format-patch.
- Accepts a boolean value, or a name and email address. If false,
- format-patch defaults to `--no-from`, using commit authors directly in
- the "From:" field of patch mails. If true, format-patch defaults to
- `--from`, using your committer identity in the "From:" field of patch
- mails and including a "From:" field in the body of the patch mail if
- different. If set to a non-boolean value, format-patch uses that
- value instead of your committer identity. Defaults to false.
-
-format.numbered::
- A boolean which can enable or disable sequence numbers in patch
- subjects. It defaults to "auto" which enables it only if there
- is more than one patch. It can be enabled or disabled for all
- messages by setting it to "true" or "false". See --numbered
- option in linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
-
-format.headers::
- Additional email headers to include in a patch to be submitted
- by mail. See linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
-
-format.to::
-format.cc::
- Additional recipients to include in a patch to be submitted
- by mail. See the --to and --cc options in
- linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
-
-format.subjectPrefix::
- The default for format-patch is to output files with the '[PATCH]'
- subject prefix. Use this variable to change that prefix.
-
-format.signature::
- The default for format-patch is to output a signature containing
- the Git version number. Use this variable to change that default.
- Set this variable to the empty string ("") to suppress
- signature generation.
-
-format.signatureFile::
- Works just like format.signature except the contents of the
- file specified by this variable will be used as the signature.
-
-format.suffix::
- The default for format-patch is to output files with the suffix
- `.patch`. Use this variable to change that suffix (make sure to
- include the dot if you want it).
-
-format.pretty::
- The default pretty format for log/show/whatchanged command,
- See linkgit:git-log[1], linkgit:git-show[1],
- linkgit:git-whatchanged[1].
-
-format.thread::
- The default threading style for 'git format-patch'. Can be
- a boolean value, or `shallow` or `deep`. `shallow` threading
- makes every mail a reply to the head of the series,
- where the head is chosen from the cover letter, the
- `--in-reply-to`, and the first patch mail, in this order.
- `deep` threading makes every mail a reply to the previous one.
- A true boolean value is the same as `shallow`, and a false
- value disables threading.
-
-format.signOff::
- A boolean value which lets you enable the `-s/--signoff` option of
- format-patch by default. *Note:* Adding the Signed-off-by: line to a
- patch should be a conscious act and means that you certify you have
- the rights to submit this work under the same open source license.
- Please see the 'SubmittingPatches' document for further discussion.
-
-format.coverLetter::
- A boolean that controls whether to generate a cover-letter when
- format-patch is invoked, but in addition can be set to "auto", to
- generate a cover-letter only when there's more than one patch.
-
-format.outputDirectory::
- Set a custom directory to store the resulting files instead of the
- current working directory.
-
-format.useAutoBase::
- A boolean value which lets you enable the `--base=auto` option of
- format-patch by default.
+include::format-config.txt[]
filter.<driver>.clean::
The command which is used to convert the content of a worktree
will be repacked. After this the number of packs should go below
gc.autoPackLimit and gc.bigPackThreshold should be respected again.
+gc.writeCommitGraph::
+ If true, then gc will rewrite the commit-graph file when
+ linkgit:git-gc[1] is run. When using linkgit:git-gc[1]
+ '--auto' the commit-graph will be updated if housekeeping is
+ required. Default is false. See linkgit:git-commit-graph[1]
+ for details.
+
gc.logExpiry::
If the file gc.log exists, then `git gc --auto` won't run
unless that file is more than 'gc.logExpiry' old. Default is
You can also use more human-readable "1.month.ago", etc.
The default is 15 days. See linkgit:git-rerere[1].
-gitcvs.commitMsgAnnotation::
- Append this string to each commit message. Set to empty string
- to disable this feature. Defaults to "via git-CVS emulator".
-
-gitcvs.enabled::
- Whether the CVS server interface is enabled for this repository.
- See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1].
-
-gitcvs.logFile::
- Path to a log file where the CVS server interface well... logs
- various stuff. See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1].
-
-gitcvs.usecrlfattr::
- If true, the server will look up the end-of-line conversion
- attributes for files to determine the `-k` modes to use. If
- the attributes force Git to treat a file as text,
- the `-k` mode will be left blank so CVS clients will
- treat it as text. If they suppress text conversion, the file
- will be set with '-kb' mode, which suppresses any newline munging
- the client might otherwise do. If the attributes do not allow
- the file type to be determined, then `gitcvs.allBinary` is
- used. See linkgit:gitattributes[5].
-
-gitcvs.allBinary::
- This is used if `gitcvs.usecrlfattr` does not resolve
- the correct '-kb' mode to use. If true, all
- unresolved files are sent to the client in
- mode '-kb'. This causes the client to treat them
- as binary files, which suppresses any newline munging it
- otherwise might do. Alternatively, if it is set to "guess",
- then the contents of the file are examined to decide if
- it is binary, similar to `core.autocrlf`.
-
-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
- linkgit: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 linkgit: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
- linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details).
-
-gitcvs.dbTableNamePrefix::
- Database table name prefix. Prepended to the names of any
- database tables used, allowing a single database to be used
- for several repositories. Supports variable substitution (see
- linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details). Any non-alphabetic
- characters will be replaced with underscores.
-
-All gitcvs variables except for `gitcvs.usecrlfattr` and
-`gitcvs.allBinary` can also be specified as
-'gitcvs.<access_method>.<varname>' (where 'access_method'
-is one of "ext" and "pserver") to make them apply only for the given
-access method.

- in the file list. The default is "true".
-
-gui.encoding::
- Specifies the default encoding to use for displaying of

- It can be overridden by setting the 'encoding' attribute
- for relevant files (see linkgit:gitattributes[5]).
- If this option is not set, the tools default to the

-gui.trustmtime::
- Determines if linkgit:git-gui[1] should trust the file modification
- timestamp or not. By default the timestamps are not trusted.
-
-gui.spellingDictionary::
- Specifies the dictionary used for spell checking commit messages in
- the linkgit:git-gui[1]. When set to "none" spell checking is turned
- off.
-
-gui.fastCopyBlame::
- If true, 'git gui blame' uses `-C` instead of `-C -C` for original
- location detection. It makes blame significantly faster on huge
- repositories at the expense of less thorough copy detection.
-
-gui.copyBlameThreshold::
- Specifies the threshold to use in 'git gui blame' original location

-pull.ff::
- By default, Git does not create an extra merge commit when merging
- a commit that is a descendant of the current commit. Instead, the
- tip of the current branch is fast-forwarded. When set to `false`,
- this variable tells Git to create an extra merge commit in such
- a case (equivalent to giving the `--no-ff` option from the command
- line). When set to `only`, only such fast-forward merges are
- allowed (equivalent to giving the `--ff-only` option from the
- command line). This setting overrides `merge.ff` when pulling.
-
-pull.rebase::
- When true, rebase branches on top of the fetched branch, instead
- of merging the default branch from the default remote when "git
- pull" is run. See "branch.<name>.rebase" for setting this on a
- per-branch basis.
-+
-When `merges`, pass the `--rebase-merges` option to 'git rebase'
-so that the local merge commits are included in the rebase (see
-linkgit:git-rebase[1] for details).
-+
-When preserve, also pass `--preserve-merges` along to 'git rebase'
-so that locally committed merge commits will not be flattened
-by running 'git pull'.
-+
-When the value is `interactive`, the rebase is run in interactive mode.
