+uploadpack.keepalive::
+       When `upload-pack` has started `pack-objects`, there may be a
+       quiet period while `pack-objects` prepares the pack. Normally
+       it would output progress information, but if `--quiet` was used
+       for the fetch, `pack-objects` will output nothing at all until
+       the pack data begins. Some clients and networks may consider
+       the server to be hung and give up. Setting this option instructs
+       `upload-pack` to send an empty keepalive packet every
+       `uploadpack.keepalive` seconds. Setting this option to 0
+       disables keepalive packets entirely. The default is 5 seconds.
