+CONFIGURATION
+-------------
+
+The command honors `color.status` (or `status.color` -- they
+mean the same thing and the latter is kept for backward
+compatibility) and `color.status.<slot>` configuration variables
+to colorize its output.
+
+As for gitlink:git-add[1], the configuration variable
+'core.excludesfile' can indicate a path to a file containing patterns
+of file names to exclude, in addition to patterns given in
+'info/exclude' and '.gitignore'.
