addEmbeddedRepo::
Advice on what to do when you've accidentally added one
git repo inside of another.
+ ignoredHook::
+ Advice shown if an hook is ignored because the hook is not
+ set as executable.
waitingForEditor::
Print a message to the terminal whenever Git is waiting for
editor input from the user.
8.3 "short" names.
Defaults to `true` on Windows, and `false` elsewhere.
+core.fsmonitor::
+ If set, the value of this variable is used as a command which
+ will identify all files that may have changed since the
+ requested date/time. This information is used to speed up git by
+ avoiding unnecessary processing of files that have not changed.
+ See the "fsmonitor-watchman" section of linkgit:githooks[5].
+
core.trustctime::
If false, the ctime differences between the index and the
working tree are ignored; useful when the inode change time
http.sslVerify::
Whether to verify the SSL certificate when fetching or pushing
- over HTTPS. Can be overridden by the `GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY` environment
- variable.
+ over HTTPS. Defaults to true. Can be overridden by the
+ `GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY` environment variable.
http.sslCert::
File containing the SSL certificate when fetching or pushing
visited as a result of a redirection do not participate in matching.
ssh.variant::
- Depending on the value of the environment variables `GIT_SSH` or
- `GIT_SSH_COMMAND`, or the config setting `core.sshCommand`, Git
- auto-detects whether to adjust its command-line parameters for use
- with plink or tortoiseplink, as opposed to the default (OpenSSH).
+ By default, Git determines the command line arguments to use
+ based on the basename of the configured SSH command (configured
+ using the environment variable `GIT_SSH` or `GIT_SSH_COMMAND` or
+ the config setting `core.sshCommand`). If the basename is
+ unrecognized, Git will attempt to detect support of OpenSSH
+ options by first invoking the configured SSH command with the
+ `-G` (print configuration) option and will subsequently use
+ OpenSSH options (if that is successful) or no options besides
+ the host and remote command (if it fails).
++
+The config variable `ssh.variant` can be set to override this detection.
+Valid values are `ssh` (to use OpenSSH options), `plink`, `putty`,
+`tortoiseplink`, `simple` (no options except the host and remote command).
+The default auto-detection can be explicitly requested using the value
+`auto`. Any other value is treated as `ssh`. This setting can also be
+overridden via the environment variable `GIT_SSH_VARIANT`.
++
+The current command-line parameters used for each variant are as
+follows:
+
-The config variable `ssh.variant` can be set to override this auto-detection;
-valid values are `ssh`, `plink`, `putty` or `tortoiseplink`. Any other value
-will be treated as normal ssh. This setting can be overridden via the
-environment variable `GIT_SSH_VARIANT`.
+--
+
+* `ssh` - [-p port] [-4] [-6] [-o option] [username@]host command
+
+* `simple` - [username@]host command
+
+* `plink` or `putty` - [-P port] [-4] [-6] [username@]host command
+
+* `tortoiseplink` - [-P port] [-4] [-6] -batch [username@]host command
+
+--
++
+Except for the `simple` variant, command-line parameters are likely to
+change as git gains new features.
i18n.commitEncoding::
Character encoding the commit messages are stored in; Git itself
`hg` to allow the `git-remote-hg` helper)
--
+protocol.version::
+ Experimental. If set, clients will attempt to communicate with a
+ server using the specified protocol version. If unset, no
+ attempt will be made by the client to communicate using a
+ particular protocol version, this results in protocol version 0
+ being used.
+ Supported versions:
++
+--
+
+* `0` - the original wire protocol.
+
+* `1` - the original wire protocol with the addition of a version string
+ in the initial response from the server.
+
+--
+
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
override a value from a lower-priority config file. An explicit
command-line flag always overrides this config option.
+push.pushOption::
+ When no `--push-option=<option>` argument is given from the
+ command line, `git push` behaves as if each <value> of
+ this variable is given as `--push-option=<value>`.
++
+This is a multi-valued variable, and an empty value can be used in a
+higher priority configuration file (e.g. `.git/config` in a
+repository) to clear the values inherited from a lower priority
+configuration files (e.g. `$HOME/.gitconfig`).
++
+--
+
+Example:
+
+/etc/gitconfig
+ push.pushoption = a
+ push.pushoption = b
+
+~/.gitconfig
+ push.pushoption = c
+
+repo/.git/config
+ push.pushoption =
+ push.pushoption = b
+
+This will result in only b (a and c are cleared).
+
+--
+
push.recurseSubmodules::
Make sure all submodule commits used by the revisions to be pushed
are available on a remote-tracking branch. If the value is 'check'
is retained. You may override this configuration at time of push by
specifying '--recurse-submodules=check|on-demand|no'.
-rebase.stat::
- Whether to show a diffstat of what changed upstream since the last
- rebase. False by default.
-
-rebase.autoSquash::
- If set to true enable `--autosquash` option by default.
-
-rebase.autoStash::
- When set to true, automatically create a temporary stash entry
- before the operation begins, and apply it after the operation
- ends. This means that you can run rebase on a dirty worktree.
- However, use with care: the final stash application after a
- 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
sendemail.suppresscc::
sendemail.suppressFrom::
sendemail.to::
+sendemail.tocmd::
sendemail.smtpDomain::
sendemail.smtpServer::
sendemail.smtpServerPort::
Specify a web browser that may be used by some commands.
Currently only linkgit:git-instaweb[1] and linkgit:git-help[1]
may use it.
+
+worktree.guessRemote::
+ With `add`, if no branch argument, and neither of `-b` nor
+ `-B` nor `--detach` are given, the command defaults to
+ creating a new branch from HEAD. If `worktree.guessRemote` is
+ set to true, `worktree add` tries to find a remote-tracking
+ branch whose name uniquely matches the new branch name. If
+ such a branch exists, it is checked out and set as "upstream"
+ for the new branch. If no such match can be found, it falls
+ back to creating a new branch from the current HEAD.
