core.fileMode::

+
-The default is true, except linkgit:git-clone[1] or linkgit:git-init[1]
-will probe and set core.fileMode false if appropriate when the

+Some filesystems lose the executable bit when a file that is

+A repository, however, may be on a filesystem that handles

+when created, but later may be made accessible from another
+environment that loses the filemode (e.g. exporting ext4 via
+CIFS mount, visiting a Cygwin created repository with

+In such a case it may be necessary to set this variable to 'false'.

If true, this option enables various workarounds to enable
When false, file names are handled fully transparent by Git,
which is backward compatible with older versions of Git.
+core.protectHFS::
+ If set to true, do not allow checkout of paths that would
+ be considered equivalent to `.git` on an HFS+ filesystem.
+ Defaults to `true` on Mac OS, and `false` elsewhere.
+
+core.protectNTFS::
+ If set to true, do not allow checkout of paths that would
+ cause problems with the NTFS filesystem, e.g. conflict with
+ 8.3 "short" names.
+ Defaults to `true` on Windows, and `false` elsewhere.
+
core.trustctime::
If false, the ctime differences between the index and the
working tree are ignored; useful when the inode change time

pack.windowMemory::
- The window memory size limit used by linkgit:git-pack-objects[1]
- when no limit is given on the command line. The value can be

pack.compression::
An integer -1..9, indicating the compression level for objects
receiving data from git-push and updating refs. You can stop
it by setting this variable to false.
+receive.certnonceseed::
+ By setting this variable to a string, `git receive-pack`
+ will accept a `git push --signed` and verifies it by using
+ a "nonce" protected by HMAC using this string as a secret
+ key.
+
+receive.certnonceslop::
+ When a `git push --signed` sent a push certificate with a
+ "nonce" that was issued by a receive-pack serving the same
+ repository within this many seconds, export the "nonce"
+ found in the certificate to `GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE` to the
+ hooks (instead of what the receive-pack asked the sending
+ side to include). This may allow writing checks in
+ `pre-receive` and `post-receive` a bit easier. Instead of
+ checking `GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE_SLOP` environment variable
+ that records by how many seconds the nonce is stale to
+ decide if they want to accept the certificate, they only
+ can check `GIT_PUSH_CERT_NONCE_STATUS` is `OK`.
+
receive.fsckObjects::
If it is set to true, git-receive-pack will check all received
objects. It will abort in the case of a malformed object or a
print a warning of such a push to stderr, but allow the push to
proceed. If set to false or "ignore", allow such pushes with no
message. Defaults to "refuse".

+Another option is "updateInstead" which will update the working
+directory (must be clean) if pushing into the current branch. This option is
+intended for synchronizing working directories when one side is not easily
+accessible via interactive ssh (e.g. a live web site, hence the requirement
+that the working directory be clean). This mode also comes in handy when
+developing inside a VM to test and fix code on different Operating Systems.
receive.denyNonFastForwards::
If set to true, git-receive-pack will deny a ref update which is
