core.fileMode::
If false, the executable bit differences between the index and
the working copy are ignored; useful on broken filesystems like FAT.
- See linkgit:git-update-index[1]. True by default.

+The default is true, except linkgit:git-clone[1] or linkgit:git-init[1]

core.ignoreCygwinFSTricks::
This option is only used by Cygwin implementation of Git. If false,
is true, in which case ignoreCygwinFSTricks is ignored as Cygwin's
POSIX emulation is required to support core.filemode.
+core.ignorecase::
+ If true, this option enables various workarounds to enable
+ git to work better on filesystems that are not case sensitive,
+ like FAT. For example, if a directory listing finds
+ "makefile" when git expects "Makefile", git will assume
+ it is really the same file, and continue to remember it as
+ "Makefile".

core.trustctime::
If false, the ctime differences between the index and the
working copy are ignored; useful when the inode change time

linkgit:git-add[1] will not change the recorded type to regular
file. Useful on filesystems like FAT that do not support
