Advice shown when you used linkgit:git-checkout[1] to
move to the detach HEAD state, to instruct how to create
a local branch after the fact.
+ checkoutAmbiguousRemoteBranchName::
+ Advice shown when the argument to
+ linkgit:git-checkout[1] ambiguously resolves to a
+ remote tracking branch on more than one remote in
+ situations where an unambiguous argument would have
+ otherwise caused a remote-tracking branch to be
+ checked out.

linkgit:git-am[1] fails to apply it.

+core.checkRoundtripEncoding::
+ A comma and/or whitespace separated list of encodings that Git
+ performs UTF-8 round trip checks on if they are used in an
+ `working-tree-encoding` attribute (see linkgit:gitattributes[5]).
+ The default value is `SHIFT-JIS`.
+
core.symlinks::
If false, symbolic links are checked out as small plain files that
contain the link text. linkgit:git-update-index[1] and
This setting defaults to "refs/notes/commits", and it can be overridden by
the `GIT_NOTES_REF` environment variable. See linkgit:git-notes[1].
+core.commitGraph::
+ Enable git commit graph feature. Allows reading from the
+ commit-graph file.
+
core.sparseCheckout::
Enable "sparse checkout" feature. See section "Sparse checkout" in
linkgit:git-read-tree[1] for more information.
"git pull" is run. See "pull.rebase" for doing this in a non
branch-specific manner.
+
+When `merges`, pass the `--rebase-merges` option to 'git rebase'
+so that the local merge commits are included in the rebase (see
+linkgit:git-rebase[1] for details).
++
When preserve, also pass `--preserve-merges` along to 'git rebase'
so that locally committed merge commits will not be flattened
by running 'git pull'.
A boolean to make git-clean do nothing unless given -f,
-i or -n. Defaults to true.
+color.advice::
+ A boolean to enable/disable color in hints (e.g. when a push
+ failed, see `advice.*` for a list). May be set to `always`,
+ `false` (or `never`) or `auto` (or `true`), in which case colors
+ are used only when the error output goes to a terminal. If
+ unset, then the value of `color.ui` is used (`auto` by default).
+
+color.advice.hint::
+ Use customized color for hints.
+

+color.blame.repeatedLines::
+ Use the customized color for the part of git-blame output that

+ author name, date and timezone). Defaults to cyan.
+
+color.blame.highlightRecent::
+ This can be used to color the metadata of a blame line depending
+ on age of the line.
++
+This setting should be set to a comma-separated list of color and date settings,
+starting and ending with a color, the dates should be set from oldest to newest.
+The metadata will be colored given the colors if the the line was introduced
+before the given timestamp, overwriting older timestamped colors.
++
+Instead of an absolute timestamp relative timestamps work as well, e.g.
+2.weeks.ago is valid to address anything older than 2 weeks.
++
+It defaults to 'blue,12 month ago,white,1 month ago,red', which colors
+everything older than one year blue, recent changes between one month and
+one year old are kept white, and lines introduced within the last month are

credentialCache.ignoreSIGHUP::
Tell git-credential-cache--daemon to ignore SIGHUP, instead of quitting.
+completion.commands::
+ This is only used by git-completion.bash to add or remove
+ commands from the list of completed commands. Normally only
+ porcelain commands and a few select others are completed. You
+ can add more commands, separated by space, in this

+ the existing list.
+
include::diff-config.txt[]
difftool.<tool>.path::
Make `git gc --auto` return immediately and run in background
if the system supports it. Default is true.
+gc.bigPackThreshold::
+ If non-zero, all packs larger than this limit are kept when
+ `git gc` is run. This is very similar to `--keep-base-pack`
+ except that all packs that meet the threshold are kept, not
+ just the base pack. Defaults to zero. Common unit suffixes of
+ 'k', 'm', or 'g' are supported.
++
+Note that if the number of kept packs is more than gc.autoPackLimit,
+this configuration variable is ignored, all packs except the base pack
+will be repacked. After this the number of packs should go below
+gc.autoPackLimit and gc.bigPackThreshold should be respected again.
+
gc.logExpiry::
If the file gc.log exists, then `git gc --auto` won't run
unless that file is more than 'gc.logExpiry' old. Default is
pack.depth::
The maximum delta depth used by linkgit:git-pack-objects[1] when no
maximum depth is given on the command line. Defaults to 50.
+ Maximum value is 4095.
pack.windowMemory::
The maximum size of memory that is consumed by each thread
The maximum size of a delta, that is cached in
linkgit:git-pack-objects[1]. This cache is used to speed up the
writing object phase by not having to recompute the final delta
- result once the best match for all objects is found. Defaults to 1000.
+ result once the best match for all objects is found.
+ Defaults to 1000. Maximum value is 65535.
