core.compression::
+ An integer -1..9, indicating a default compression level.
+ -1 is the zlib default. 0 means no compression,

+core.loosecompression::
An integer -1..9, indicating the compression level for objects that

-core.legacyheaders::
- A boolean which
- changes the format of loose objects so that they are more
- efficient to pack and to send out of the repository over git
- native protocol, since v1.4.2. However, loose objects
- written in the new format cannot be read by git older than
- that version; people fetching from your repository using
- older versions of git over dumb transports (e.g. http)
- will also be affected.

-To let git use the new loose object format, you have to

core.packedGitWindowSize::
Number of bytes of a pack file to map into memory in a
core.excludeFile::
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.

+ gitlink:gitignore[5].
alias.*::
Command aliases for the gitlink:git[1] command wrapper - e.g.
`.patch`. Use this variable to change that suffix (make sure to
include the dot if you want it).
+gc.aggressiveWindow::
+ The window size parameter used in the delta compression
+ algorithm used by 'git gc --aggressive'. This defaults
+ to 10.
+
gc.packrefs::
`git gc` does not run `git pack-refs` in a bare repository by
default so that older dumb-transport clients can still fetch
merge.tool::
Controls which merge resolution program is used by
gitlink:git-mergetool[l]. Valid values are: "kdiff3", "tkdiff",
- "meld", "xxdiff", "emerge", "vimdiff", and "opendiff"
+ "meld", "xxdiff", "emerge", "vimdiff", "gvimdiff", and "opendiff".
merge.verbosity::
Controls the amount of output shown by the recursive merge
The maximum delta depth used by gitlink:git-pack-objects[1] when no
maximum depth is given on the command line. Defaults to 50.
+pack.compression::
+ An integer -1..9, indicating the compression level for objects
+ in a pack file. -1 is the zlib default. 0 means no

+pack.deltaCacheSize::
+ The maxium memory in bytes used for caching deltas in
+ gitlink:git-pack-objects[1].
+ A value of 0 means no limit. Defaults to 0.

+pack.deltaCacheLimit::
+ The maxium size of a delta, that is cached in

pull.octopus::
The default merge strategy to use when pulling multiple branches
at once.
transfer.unpackLimit::
When `fetch.unpackLimit` or `receive.unpackLimit` are
not set, the value of this variable is used instead.
