group-shareable. When 'umask' (or 'false'), git will use permissions
reported by umask(2). When '0xxx', where '0xxx' is an octal number,
files in the repository will have this mode value. '0xxx' will override
- user's umask value, and thus, users with a safe umask (0077) can use
- this option. Examples: '0660' is equivalent to 'group'. '0640' is a
+ user's umask value (whereas the other options will only override
+ requested parts of the user's umask value). Examples: '0660' will make
+ the repo read/write-able for the owner and group, but inaccessible to
+ others (equivalent to 'group' unless umask is e.g. '0022'). '0640' is a
repository that is group-readable but not group-writable.
See linkgit:git-init[1]. False by default.
color.interactive.<slot>::
Use customized color for 'git-add --interactive'
- output. `<slot>` may be `prompt`, `header`, or `help`, for
- three distinct types of normal output from interactive
+ output. `<slot>` may be `prompt`, `header`, `help` or `error`, for
+ four distinct types of normal output from interactive
programs. The values of these variables may be specified as
in color.branch.<slot>.

+interactive.singlekey::
+ In interactive programs, allow the user to provide one-letter
+ input with a single key (i.e., without hitting enter).
+ Currently this is used only by the `\--patch` mode of
+ linkgit:git-add[1]. Note that this setting is silently
+ ignored if portable keystroke input is not available.

log.date::
Set default date-time mode for the log command. Setting log.date
value is similar to using 'git-log'\'s --date option. The value is one of the
