index comparison to the filesystem data in parallel, allowing
overlapping IO's.
+core.notesRef::
+ When showing commit messages, also show notes which are stored in
+ the given ref. This ref is expected to contain files named
+ after the full SHA-1 of the commit they annotate.
++
+If such a file exists in the given ref, the referenced blob is read, and
+appended to the commit message, separated by a "Notes:" line. If the
+given ref itself does not exist, it is not an error, but means that no
+notes should be printed.
++
+This setting defaults to "refs/notes/commits", and can be overridden by
+the `GIT_NOTES_REF` environment variable.
+
alias.*::
Command aliases for the linkgit:git[1] command wrapper - e.g.
after defining "alias.last = cat-file commit HEAD", the invocation
color.interactive.<slot>::

- 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>.
A boolean to inhibit the standard behavior of printing a space
before each empty output line. Defaults to false.
+diff.wordRegex::
+ A POSIX Extended Regular Expression used to determine what is a "word"
+ when performing word-by-word difference calculations. Character
+ sequences that match the regular expression are "words", all other
+ characters are *ignorable* whitespace.
+
fetch.unpackLimit::
If the number of objects fetched over the git native
transfer is below this
gc.pruneexpire::
When 'git-gc' is run, it will call 'prune --expire 2.weeks.ago'.
- Override the grace period with this config variable.
+ Override the grace period with this config variable. The value
+ "now" may be used to disable this grace period and always prune
+ unreachable objects immediately.
gc.reflogexpire::
'git-reflog expire' removes reflog entries older than
kept for this many days when 'git-rerere gc' is run.
The default is 15 days. See linkgit:git-rerere[1].
+gitcvs.commitmsgannotation::

+interactive.singlekey::
+ In interactive programs, allow the user to provide one-letter
+ input with a single key (i.e., without hitting enter).

+ ignored if portable keystroke input is not available.

+ exited. Defaults to `false`.
+
+mergetool.prompt::
+ Prompt before each invocation of the merge resolution program.
+
pack.window::
The size of the window used by linkgit:git-pack-objects[1] when no
window size is given on the command line. Defaults to 10.
