writing to the filesystem. The variable can be set to
'input', in which case the conversion happens only while
reading from the filesystem but files are written out with
- `LF` at the end of lines. Currently, which paths to consider
- "text" (i.e. be subjected to the autocrlf mechanism) is
- decided purely based on the contents.
+ `LF` at the end of lines. A file is considered
+ "text" (i.e. be subjected to the autocrlf mechanism) based on

core.safecrlf::
If true, makes git check if converting `CRLF` as controlled by
core.excludesfile::
In addition to '.gitignore' (per-directory) and
'.git/info/exclude', git looks into this file for patterns

home directory. See linkgit:gitignore[5].
core.editor::
consider them as errors. You can prefix `-` to disable
any of them (e.g. `-trailing-space`):
+
-* `trailing-space` treats trailing whitespaces at the end of the line
+* `blank-at-eol` treats trailing whitespaces at the end of the line
as an error (enabled by default).
* `space-before-tab` treats a space character that appears immediately
before a tab character in the initial indent part of the line as an
error (enabled by default).
* `indent-with-non-tab` treats a line that is indented with 8 or more
space characters as an error (not enabled by default).
+* `blank-at-eof` treats blank lines added at the end of file as an error
+ (enabled by default).
+* `trailing-space` is a short-hand to cover both `blank-at-eol` and
+ `blank-at-eof`.
* `cr-at-eol` treats a carriage-return at the end of line as
part of the line terminator, i.e. with it, `trailing-space`
does not trigger if the character before such a carriage-return

diff.autorefreshindex::
Whether to show a diffstat of what changed upstream since the last
rebase. False by default.
+receive.autogc::
+ By default, git-receive-pack will run "git-gc --auto" after
+ receiving data from git-push and updating refs. You can stop
+ it by setting this variable to false.
+
receive.fsckObjects::
If it is set to true, git-receive-pack will check all received
objects. It will abort in the case of a malformed object or a
even if that push is forced. This configuration variable is
set when initializing a shared repository.
+receive.updateserverinfo::
+ If set to true, git-receive-pack will run git-update-server-info
+ after receiving data from git-push and updating refs.
+
remote.<name>.url::
The URL of a remote repository. See linkgit:git-fetch[1] or
linkgit:git-push[1].
