expect HEAD to be a symbolic link.
core.logAllRefUpdates::
- If true, `git-update-ref` will append a line to
- "$GIT_DIR/logs/<ref>" listing the new SHA1 and the date/time
- of the update. If the file does not exist it will be
- created automatically. This information can be used to
- determine what commit was the tip of a branch "2 days ago".
- This value is false by default (no logging).
+ Updates to a ref <ref> is logged to the file
+ "$GIT_DIR/logs/<ref>", by appending the new and old
+ SHA1, the date/time and the reason of the update, but
+ only when the file exists. If this configuration
+ variable is set to true, missing "$GIT_DIR/logs/<ref>"
+ file is automatically created for branch heads.
+
+ This information can be used to determine what commit
+ was the tip of a branch "2 days ago". This value is
+ false by default (no automated creation of log files).
core.repositoryFormatVersion::
Internal variable identifying the repository format and layout
Tells `git-apply` how to handle whitespaces, in the same way
as the '--whitespace' option. See gitlink:git-apply[1].
+branch.<name>.remote::
+ When in branch <name>, it tells `git fetch` which remote to fetch.
+
+branch.<name>.merge::
+ When in branch <name>, it tells `git fetch` the default remote branch
+ to be merged.
+
pager.color::
A boolean to enable/disable colored output when the pager is in
use (default is true).
Can be overridden by the 'GIT_HTTP_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT' and
'GIT_HTTP_LOW_SPEED_TIME' environment variables.
+http.noEPSV::
+ A boolean which disables using of EPSV ftp command by curl.
+ This can helpful with some "poor" ftp servers which doesn't
+ support EPSV mode. Can be overridden by the 'GIT_CURL_FTP_NO_EPSV'
+ environment variable. Default is false (curl will use EPSV).
+
i18n.commitEncoding::
Character encoding the commit messages are stored in; git itself
does not care per se, but this information is necessary e.g. when
pull.twohead::
The default merge strategy to use when pulling a single branch.
+remote.<name>.url::
+ The URL of a remote repository. See gitlink:git-fetch[1] or
+ gitlink:git-push[1].
+
+remote.<name>.fetch::
+ The default set of "refspec" for gitlink:git-fetch[1]. See
+ gitlink:git-fetch[1].
+
+remote.<name>.push::
+ The default set of "refspec" for gitlink:git-push[1]. See
+ gitlink:git-push[1].
+
+repack.usedeltabaseoffset::
+ Allow gitlink:git-repack[1] to create packs that uses
+ delta-base offset. Defaults to false.
+
show.difftree::
The default gitlink:git-diff-tree[1] arguments to be used
for gitlink:git-show[1].
The default set of branches for gitlink:git-show-branch[1].
See gitlink:git-show-branch[1].
+status.color::
+ A boolean to enable/disable color in the output of
+ gitlink:git-status[1]. May be set to `true` (or `always`),
+ `false` (or `never`) or `auto`, in which case colors are used
+ only when the output is to a terminal. Defaults to false.
+
+status.color.<slot>::
+ Use customized color for status colorization. `<slot>` is
+ one of `header` (the header text of the status message),
+ `updated` (files which are updated but not committed),
+ `changed` (files which are changed but not updated in the index),
+ or `untracked` (files which are not tracked by git). The values of
+ these variables may be specified as in diff.color.<slot>.
+
tar.umask::
By default, gitlink:git-tar-tree[1] sets file and directories modes
to 0666 or 0777. While this is both useful and acceptable for projects
imap::
The configuration variables in the 'imap' section are described
in gitlink:git-imap-send[1].
+
+receive.unpackLimit::
+ If the number of objects received in a push is below this
+ limit then the objects will be unpacked into loose object
+ files. However if the number of received objects equals or
+ exceeds this limit then the received pack will be stored as
+ a pack, after adding any missing delta bases. Storing the
+ pack from a push can make the push operation complete faster,
+ especially on slow filesystems.
+
+receive.denyNonFastForwards::
+ If set to true, git-receive-pack will deny a ref update which is
+ not a fast forward. Use this to prevent such an update via a push,
+ even if that push is forced. This configuration variable is
+ set when initializing a shared repository.
