Text editor used by `git rebase -i` for editing the rebase instruction file.
The value is meant to be interpreted by the shell when it is used.
It can be overridden by the `GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR` environment variable.

operation complete faster, especially on slow filesystems. If
not set, the value of `transfer.unpackLimit` is used instead.
fetch.recurseSubmodules::
This option can be either set to a boolean value or to 'on-demand'.
Setting it to a boolean changes the behavior of fetch and pull to
unconditionally recurse into submodules when set to true or to not
recurse at all when set to false. When set to 'on-demand' (the default
value), fetch and pull will only recurse into a populated submodule
when its superproject retrieves a commit that updates the submodule's
reference.
include::fetch-config.txt[]
fetch.fsckObjects::
If it is set to true, git-fetch-pack will check all fetched
objects. See `transfer.fsckObjects` for what's
checked. Defaults to false. If not set, the value of
`transfer.fsckObjects` is used instead.
fetch.fsck.<msg-id>::
Acts like `fsck.<msg-id>`, but is used by
linkgit:git-fetch-pack[1] instead of linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See
the `fsck.<msg-id>` documentation for details.
fetch.fsck.skipList::
Acts like `fsck.skipList`, but is used by
linkgit:git-fetch-pack[1] instead of linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See
the `fsck.skipList` documentation for details.
fetch.unpackLimit::
If the number of objects fetched over the Git native
transfer 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. If not set, the value of
`transfer.unpackLimit` is used instead.
fetch.prune::
If true, fetch will automatically behave as if the `--prune`
option was given on the command line. See also `remote.<name>.prune`
and the PRUNING section of linkgit:git-fetch[1].
fetch.pruneTags::
If true, fetch will automatically behave as if the
`refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*` refspec was provided when pruning,
if not set already. This allows for setting both this option
and `fetch.prune` to maintain a 1=1 mapping to upstream
refs. See also `remote.<name>.pruneTags` and the PRUNING
section of linkgit:git-fetch[1].
fetch.output::
Control how ref update status is printed. Valid values are
`full` and `compact`. Default value is `full`. See section
OUTPUT in linkgit:git-fetch[1] for detail.
fetch.negotiationAlgorithm::
Control how information about the commits in the local repository is
sent when negotiating the contents of the packfile to be sent by the
server. Set to "skipping" to use an algorithm that skips commits in an
effort to converge faster, but may result in a larger-than-necessary
packfile; The default is "default" which instructs Git to use the default algorithm
that never skips commits (unless the server has acknowledged it or one
of its descendants).
Unknown values will cause 'git fetch' to error out.
+
See also the `--negotiation-tip` option for linkgit:git-fetch[1].
format.attach::
Enable multipart/mixed attachments as the default for
'format-patch'. The value can also be a double quoted string
which will enable attachments as the default and set the
value as the boundary. See the --attach option in
linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
format.from::
Provides the default value for the `--from` option to format-patch.
Accepts a boolean value, or a name and email address. If false,
format-patch defaults to `--no-from`, using commit authors directly in
the "From:" field of patch mails. If true, format-patch defaults to
`--from`, using your committer identity in the "From:" field of patch
mails and including a "From:" field in the body of the patch mail if
different. If set to a non-boolean value, format-patch uses that
value instead of your committer identity. Defaults to false.
format.numbered::
A boolean which can enable or disable sequence numbers in patch
subjects. It defaults to "auto" which enables it only if there
is more than one patch. It can be enabled or disabled for all
messages by setting it to "true" or "false". See --numbered
option in linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
format.headers::
Additional email headers to include in a patch to be submitted
by mail. See linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
format.to::
format.cc::
Additional recipients to include in a patch to be submitted
by mail. See the --to and --cc options in
linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
format.subjectPrefix::
The default for format-patch is to output files with the '[PATCH]'
subject prefix. Use this variable to change that prefix.
format.signature::
The default for format-patch is to output a signature containing
the Git version number. Use this variable to change that default.
Set this variable to the empty string ("") to suppress
signature generation.
format.signatureFile::
Works just like format.signature except the contents of the
file specified by this variable will be used as the signature.
format.suffix::
The default for format-patch is to output files with the suffix
`.patch`. Use this variable to change that suffix (make sure to
include the dot if you want it).
format.pretty::
The default pretty format for log/show/whatchanged command,
See linkgit:git-log[1], linkgit:git-show[1],
linkgit:git-whatchanged[1].
format.thread::
The default threading style for 'git format-patch'. Can be
a boolean value, or `shallow` or `deep`. `shallow` threading
makes every mail a reply to the head of the series,
where the head is chosen from the cover letter, the
`--in-reply-to`, and the first patch mail, in this order.
`deep` threading makes every mail a reply to the previous one.
A true boolean value is the same as `shallow`, and a false
value disables threading.
format.signOff::
A boolean value which lets you enable the `-s/--signoff` option of
format-patch by default. *Note:* Adding the Signed-off-by: line to a
patch should be a conscious act and means that you certify you have
the rights to submit this work under the same open source license.
Please see the 'SubmittingPatches' document for further discussion.
format.coverLetter::
A boolean that controls whether to generate a cover-letter when
format-patch is invoked, but in addition can be set to "auto", to
generate a cover-letter only when there's more than one patch.
format.outputDirectory::
Set a custom directory to store the resulting files instead of the
current working directory.
format.useAutoBase::
A boolean value which lets you enable the `--base=auto` option of
format-patch by default.

@ -1847,73 +1691,7 @@ gc.rerereUnresolved::
You can also use more human-readable "1.month.ago", etc.
The default is 15 days. See linkgit:git-rerere[1].
gitcvs.commitMsgAnnotation::
Append this string to each commit message. Set to empty string
to disable this feature. Defaults to "via git-CVS emulator".
gitcvs.enabled::
Whether the CVS server interface is enabled for this repository.
See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1].
gitcvs.logFile::
Path to a log file where the CVS server interface well... logs
various stuff. See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1].
gitcvs.usecrlfattr::
If true, the server will look up the end-of-line conversion
attributes for files to determine the `-k` modes to use. If
the attributes force Git to treat a file as text,
the `-k` mode will be left blank so CVS clients will
treat it as text. If they suppress text conversion, the file
will be set with '-kb' mode, which suppresses any newline munging
the client might otherwise do. If the attributes do not allow
the file type to be determined, then `gitcvs.allBinary` is
used. See linkgit:gitattributes[5].
gitcvs.allBinary::
This is used if `gitcvs.usecrlfattr` does not resolve
the correct '-kb' mode to use. If true, all
unresolved files are sent to the client in
mode '-kb'. This causes the client to treat them
as binary files, which suppresses any newline munging it
otherwise might do. Alternatively, if it is set to "guess",
then the contents of the file are examined to decide if
it is binary, similar to `core.autocrlf`.
gitcvs.dbName::
Database used by git-cvsserver to cache revision information
derived from the Git repository. The exact meaning depends on the
used database driver, for SQLite (which is the default driver) this
is a filename. Supports variable substitution (see
linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details). May not contain semicolons (`;`).
Default: '%Ggitcvs.%m.sqlite'
gitcvs.dbDriver::
Used Perl DBI driver. You can specify any available driver
for this here, but it might not work. git-cvsserver is tested
with 'DBD::SQLite', reported to work with 'DBD::Pg', and
reported *not* to work with 'DBD::mysql'. Experimental feature.
May not contain double colons (`:`). Default: 'SQLite'.
See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1].
gitcvs.dbUser, gitcvs.dbPass::
Database user and password. Only useful if setting `gitcvs.dbDriver`,
since SQLite has no concept of database users and/or passwords.
'gitcvs.dbUser' supports variable substitution (see
linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details).
gitcvs.dbTableNamePrefix::
Database table name prefix. Prepended to the names of any
database tables used, allowing a single database to be used
for several repositories. Supports variable substitution (see
linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details). Any non-alphabetic
characters will be replaced with underscores.
All gitcvs variables except for `gitcvs.usecrlfattr` and
`gitcvs.allBinary` can also be specified as
'gitcvs.<access_method>.<varname>' (where 'access_method'
is one of "ext" and "pserver") to make them apply only for the given
access method.

gui.commitMsgWidth::
Defines how wide the commit message window is in the
linkgit:git-gui[1]. "75" is the default.
gui.diffContext::
Specifies how many context lines should be used in calls to diff
made by the linkgit:git-gui[1]. The default is "5".
gui.displayUntracked::
Determines if linkgit:git-gui[1] shows untracked files
in the file list. The default is "true".
gui.encoding::
Specifies the default encoding to use for displaying of
file contents in linkgit:git-gui[1] and linkgit:gitk[1].
It can be overridden by setting the 'encoding' attribute
for relevant files (see linkgit:gitattributes[5]).
If this option is not set, the tools default to the
locale encoding.
gui.matchTrackingBranch::
Determines if new branches created with linkgit:git-gui[1] should
default to tracking remote branches with matching names or
not. Default: "false".
gui.newBranchTemplate::
Is used as suggested name when creating new branches using the
linkgit:git-gui[1].
gui.pruneDuringFetch::
"true" if linkgit:git-gui[1] should prune remote-tracking branches when
performing a fetch. The default value is "false".
gui.trustmtime::
Determines if linkgit:git-gui[1] should trust the file modification
timestamp or not. By default the timestamps are not trusted.
gui.spellingDictionary::
Specifies the dictionary used for spell checking commit messages in
the linkgit:git-gui[1]. When set to "none" spell checking is turned
off.
gui.fastCopyBlame::
If true, 'git gui blame' uses `-C` instead of `-C -C` for original
location detection. It makes blame significantly faster on huge
repositories at the expense of less thorough copy detection.
gui.copyBlameThreshold::
Specifies the threshold to use in 'git gui blame' original location
detection, measured in alphanumeric characters. See the
linkgit:git-blame[1] manual for more information on copy detection.
gui.blamehistoryctx::
Specifies the radius of history context in days to show in

pull.ff::
By default, Git does not create an extra merge commit when merging
a commit that is a descendant of the current commit. Instead, the
tip of the current branch is fast-forwarded. When set to `false`,
this variable tells Git to create an extra merge commit in such
a case (equivalent to giving the `--no-ff` option from the command
line). When set to `only`, only such fast-forward merges are
allowed (equivalent to giving the `--ff-only` option from the
command line). This setting overrides `merge.ff` when pulling.
include::pull-config.txt[]
pull.rebase::
When true, rebase branches on top of the fetched branch, instead
of merging the default branch from the default remote when "git
pull" is run. See "branch.<name>.rebase" for setting this on a
per-branch basis.
+
When `merges`, pass the `--rebase-merges` option to 'git rebase'
so that the local merge commits are included in the rebase (see
linkgit:git-rebase[1] for details).
+
When preserve, also pass `--preserve-merges` along to 'git rebase'
so that locally committed merge commits will not be flattened
by running 'git pull'.
+
When the value is `interactive`, the rebase is run in interactive mode.
+
*NOTE*: this is a possibly dangerous operation; do *not* use
it unless you understand the implications (see linkgit:git-rebase[1]
for details).
pull.octopus::
The default merge strategy to use when pulling multiple branches
at once.
pull.twohead::
The default merge strategy to use when pulling a single branch.
push.default::
Defines the action `git push` should take if no refspec is
explicitly given. Different values are well-suited for
specific workflows; for instance, in a purely central workflow
(i.e. the fetch source is equal to the push destination),
`upstream` is probably what you want. Possible values are:
+
--
* `nothing` - do not push anything (error out) unless a refspec is
explicitly given. This is primarily meant for people who want to
avoid mistakes by always being explicit.
* `current` - push the current branch to update a branch with the same
name on the receiving end. Works in both central and non-central
workflows.
* `upstream` - push the current branch back to the branch whose
changes are usually integrated into the current branch (which is
called `@{upstream}`). This mode only makes sense if you are
pushing to the same repository you would normally pull from
(i.e. central workflow).
* `tracking` - This is a deprecated synonym for `upstream`.
* `simple` - in centralized workflow, work like `upstream` with an
added safety to refuse to push if the upstream branch's name is
different from the local one.
+
When pushing to a remote that is different from the remote you normally
pull from, work as `current`. This is the safest option and is suited
for beginners.
+
This mode has become the default in Git 2.0.
* `matching` - push all branches having the same name on both ends.
This makes the repository you are pushing to remember the set of
branches that will be pushed out (e.g. if you always push 'maint'
and 'master' there and no other branches, the repository you push
to will have these two branches, and your local 'maint' and
'master' will be pushed there).
+
To use this mode effectively, you have to make sure _all_ the
branches you would push out are ready to be pushed out before
running 'git push', as the whole point of this mode is to allow you
to push all of the branches in one go. If you usually finish work
on only one branch and push out the result, while other branches are
unfinished, this mode is not for you. Also this mode is not
suitable for pushing into a shared central repository, as other
people may add new branches there, or update the tip of existing
branches outside your control.
+
This used to be the default, but not since Git 2.0 (`simple` is the
new default).
--
push.followTags::
If set to true enable `--follow-tags` option by default. You
may override this configuration at time of push by specifying
`--no-follow-tags`.
push.gpgSign::
May be set to a boolean value, or the string 'if-asked'. A true
value causes all pushes to be GPG signed, as if `--signed` is
passed to linkgit:git-push[1]. The string 'if-asked' causes
pushes to be signed if the server supports it, as if
`--signed=if-asked` is passed to 'git push'. A false value may
override a value from a lower-priority config file. An explicit
command-line flag always overrides this config option.
push.pushOption::
When no `--push-option=<option>` argument is given from the
command line, `git push` behaves as if each <value> of
this variable is given as `--push-option=<value>`.
+
This is a multi-valued variable, and an empty value can be used in a
higher priority configuration file (e.g. `.git/config` in a
repository) to clear the values inherited from a lower priority
configuration files (e.g. `$HOME/.gitconfig`).
+
--
Example:
/etc/gitconfig
push.pushoption = a
push.pushoption = b
~/.gitconfig
push.pushoption = c
repo/.git/config
push.pushoption =
push.pushoption = b
This will result in only b (a and c are cleared).
--
push.recurseSubmodules::
Make sure all submodule commits used by the revisions to be pushed
are available on a remote-tracking branch. If the value is 'check'
then Git will verify that all submodule commits that changed in the
revisions to be pushed are available on at least one remote of the
submodule. If any commits are missing, the push will be aborted and
exit with non-zero status. If the value is 'on-demand' then all
submodules that changed in the revisions to be pushed will be
pushed. If on-demand was not able to push all necessary revisions
it will also be aborted and exit with non-zero status. If the value
is 'no' then default behavior of ignoring submodules when pushing
is retained. You may override this configuration at time of push by
specifying '--recurse-submodules=check|on-demand|no'.
include::push-config.txt[]
include::rebase-config.txt[]
receive.advertiseAtomic::
By default, git-receive-pack will advertise the atomic push
capability to its clients. If you don't want to advertise this
capability, set this variable to false.
receive.advertisePushOptions::
When set to true, git-receive-pack will advertise the push options
capability to its clients. False by default.
receive.autogc::
By default, git-receive-pack will run "git-gc --auto" after
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. See `transfer.fsckObjects` for what's checked.
Defaults to false. If not set, the value of
`transfer.fsckObjects` is used instead.
receive.fsck.<msg-id>::
Acts like `fsck.<msg-id>`, but is used by
linkgit:git-receive-pack[1] instead of
linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See the `fsck.<msg-id>` documentation for
details.
receive.fsck.skipList::
Acts like `fsck.skipList`, but is used by
linkgit:git-receive-pack[1] instead of
linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See the `fsck.skipList` documentation for
details.
receive.keepAlive::
After receiving the pack from the client, `receive-pack` may
produce no output (if `--quiet` was specified) while processing
the pack, causing some networks to drop the TCP connection.
With this option set, if `receive-pack` does not transmit
any data in this phase for `receive.keepAlive` seconds, it will
send a short keepalive packet. The default is 5 seconds; set
to 0 to disable keepalives entirely.
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. If not set, the value of
`transfer.unpackLimit` is used instead.
receive.maxInputSize::
If the size of the incoming pack stream is larger than this
limit, then git-receive-pack will error out, instead of
accepting the pack file. If not set or set to 0, then the size
is unlimited.
receive.denyDeletes::
If set to true, git-receive-pack will deny a ref update that deletes
the ref. Use this to prevent such a ref deletion via a push.
receive.denyDeleteCurrent::
If set to true, git-receive-pack will deny a ref update that
deletes the currently checked out branch of a non-bare repository.
receive.denyCurrentBranch::
If set to true or "refuse", git-receive-pack will deny a ref update
to the currently checked out branch of a non-bare repository.
Such a push is potentially dangerous because it brings the HEAD
out of sync with the index and working tree. If set to "warn",
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
tree 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.
+
By default, "updateInstead" will refuse the push if the working tree or
the index have any difference from the HEAD, but the `push-to-checkout`
hook can be used to customize this. See linkgit:githooks[5].
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.
receive.hideRefs::
This variable is the same as `transfer.hideRefs`, but applies
only to `receive-pack` (and so affects pushes, but not fetches).
An attempt to update or delete a hidden ref by `git push` is
rejected.
receive.updateServerInfo::
If set to true, git-receive-pack will run git-update-server-info
after receiving data from git-push and updating refs.
receive.shallowUpdate::
If set to true, .git/shallow can be updated when new refs
require new shallow roots. Otherwise those refs are rejected.

and `pull.rebase` are more specific. It is populated by
`git submodule init` from the linkgit:gitmodules[5] file.
See description of 'update' command in linkgit:git-submodule[1].
submodule.<name>.branch::
The remote branch name for a submodule, used by `git submodule
update --remote`. Set this option to override the value found in
the `.gitmodules` file. See linkgit:git-submodule[1] and
linkgit:gitmodules[5] for details.
submodule.<name>.fetchRecurseSubmodules::
This option can be used to control recursive fetching of this
submodule. It can be overridden by using the --[no-]recurse-submodules
command-line option to "git fetch" and "git pull".
This setting will override that from in the linkgit:gitmodules[5]
file.
submodule.<name>.ignore::
Defines under what circumstances "git status" and the diff family show
a submodule as modified. When set to "all", it will never be considered
modified (but it will nonetheless show up in the output of status and
commit when it has been staged), "dirty" will ignore all changes
to the submodules work tree and
takes only differences between the HEAD of the submodule and the commit
recorded in the superproject into account. "untracked" will additionally
let submodules with modified tracked files in their work tree show up.
Using "none" (the default when this option is not set) also shows
submodules that have untracked files in their work tree as changed.
This setting overrides any setting made in .gitmodules for this submodule,
both settings can be overridden on the command line by using the
"--ignore-submodules" option. The 'git submodule' commands are not
affected by this setting.
submodule.<name>.active::
Boolean value indicating if the submodule is of interest to git
commands. This config option takes precedence over the
submodule.active config option. See linkgit:gitsubmodules[7] for
details.
submodule.active::
A repeated field which contains a pathspec used to match against a
submodule's path to determine if the submodule is of interest to git
commands. See linkgit:gitsubmodules[7] for details.
submodule.recurse::
Specifies if commands recurse into submodules by default. This
applies to all commands that have a `--recurse-submodules` option,
except `clone`.
Defaults to false.
submodule.fetchJobs::
Specifies how many submodules are fetched/cloned at the same time.
A positive integer allows up to that number of submodules fetched
in parallel. A value of 0 will give some reasonable default.
If unset, it defaults to 1.
submodule.alternateLocation::
Specifies how the submodules obtain alternates when submodules are
cloned. Possible values are `no`, `superproject`.
By default `no` is assumed, which doesn't add references. When the
value is set to `superproject` the submodule to be cloned computes
its alternates location relative to the superprojects alternate.
submodule.alternateErrorStrategy::
Specifies how to treat errors with the alternates for a submodule
as computed via `submodule.alternateLocation`. Possible values are
`ignore`, `info`, `die`. Default is `die`.
include::submodule-config.txt[]
tag.forceSignAnnotated::
A boolean to specify whether annotated tags created should be GPG signed.

fetch.recurseSubmodules::
This option can be either set to a boolean value or to 'on-demand'.
Setting it to a boolean changes the behavior of fetch and pull to
unconditionally recurse into submodules when set to true or to not
recurse at all when set to false. When set to 'on-demand' (the default
value), fetch and pull will only recurse into a populated submodule
when its superproject retrieves a commit that updates the submodule's
reference.
fetch.fsckObjects::
If it is set to true, git-fetch-pack will check all fetched
objects. See `transfer.fsckObjects` for what's
checked. Defaults to false. If not set, the value of
`transfer.fsckObjects` is used instead.
fetch.fsck.<msg-id>::
Acts like `fsck.<msg-id>`, but is used by
linkgit:git-fetch-pack[1] instead of linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See
the `fsck.<msg-id>` documentation for details.
fetch.fsck.skipList::
Acts like `fsck.skipList`, but is used by
linkgit:git-fetch-pack[1] instead of linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See
the `fsck.skipList` documentation for details.
fetch.unpackLimit::
If the number of objects fetched over the Git native
transfer 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. If not set, the value of
`transfer.unpackLimit` is used instead.
fetch.prune::
If true, fetch will automatically behave as if the `--prune`
option was given on the command line. See also `remote.<name>.prune`
and the PRUNING section of linkgit:git-fetch[1].
fetch.pruneTags::
If true, fetch will automatically behave as if the
`refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*` refspec was provided when pruning,
if not set already. This allows for setting both this option
and `fetch.prune` to maintain a 1=1 mapping to upstream
refs. See also `remote.<name>.pruneTags` and the PRUNING
section of linkgit:git-fetch[1].
fetch.output::
Control how ref update status is printed. Valid values are
`full` and `compact`. Default value is `full`. See section
OUTPUT in linkgit:git-fetch[1] for detail.
fetch.negotiationAlgorithm::
Control how information about the commits in the local repository is
sent when negotiating the contents of the packfile to be sent by the
server. Set to "skipping" to use an algorithm that skips commits in an
effort to converge faster, but may result in a larger-than-necessary
packfile; The default is "default" which instructs Git to use the default algorithm
that never skips commits (unless the server has acknowledged it or one
of its descendants).
Unknown values will cause 'git fetch' to error out.

format.attach::
Enable multipart/mixed attachments as the default for
'format-patch'. The value can also be a double quoted string
which will enable attachments as the default and set the
value as the boundary. See the --attach option in
linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
format.from::
Provides the default value for the `--from` option to format-patch.
Accepts a boolean value, or a name and email address. If false,
format-patch defaults to `--no-from`, using commit authors directly in
the "From:" field of patch mails. If true, format-patch defaults to
`--from`, using your committer identity in the "From:" field of patch
mails and including a "From:" field in the body of the patch mail if
different. If set to a non-boolean value, format-patch uses that
value instead of your committer identity. Defaults to false.
format.numbered::
A boolean which can enable or disable sequence numbers in patch
subjects. It defaults to "auto" which enables it only if there
is more than one patch. It can be enabled or disabled for all
messages by setting it to "true" or "false". See --numbered
option in linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
format.headers::
Additional email headers to include in a patch to be submitted
by mail. See linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
format.to::
format.cc::
Additional recipients to include in a patch to be submitted
by mail. See the --to and --cc options in
linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
format.subjectPrefix::
The default for format-patch is to output files with the '[PATCH]'
subject prefix. Use this variable to change that prefix.
format.signature::
The default for format-patch is to output a signature containing
the Git version number. Use this variable to change that default.
Set this variable to the empty string ("") to suppress
signature generation.
format.signatureFile::
Works just like format.signature except the contents of the
file specified by this variable will be used as the signature.
format.suffix::
The default for format-patch is to output files with the suffix
`.patch`. Use this variable to change that suffix (make sure to
include the dot if you want it).
format.pretty::
The default pretty format for log/show/whatchanged command,
See linkgit:git-log[1], linkgit:git-show[1],
linkgit:git-whatchanged[1].
format.thread::
The default threading style for 'git format-patch'. Can be
a boolean value, or `shallow` or `deep`. `shallow` threading
makes every mail a reply to the head of the series,
where the head is chosen from the cover letter, the
`--in-reply-to`, and the first patch mail, in this order.
`deep` threading makes every mail a reply to the previous one.
A true boolean value is the same as `shallow`, and a false
value disables threading.
format.signOff::
A boolean value which lets you enable the `-s/--signoff` option of
format-patch by default. *Note:* Adding the Signed-off-by: line to a
patch should be a conscious act and means that you certify you have
the rights to submit this work under the same open source license.
Please see the 'SubmittingPatches' document for further discussion.
format.coverLetter::
A boolean that controls whether to generate a cover-letter when
format-patch is invoked, but in addition can be set to "auto", to
generate a cover-letter only when there's more than one patch.
format.outputDirectory::
Set a custom directory to store the resulting files instead of the
current working directory.
format.useAutoBase::
A boolean value which lets you enable the `--base=auto` option of
format-patch by default.

gitcvs.commitMsgAnnotation::
Append this string to each commit message. Set to empty string
to disable this feature. Defaults to "via git-CVS emulator".
gitcvs.enabled::
Whether the CVS server interface is enabled for this repository.
See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1].
gitcvs.logFile::
Path to a log file where the CVS server interface well... logs
various stuff. See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1].
gitcvs.usecrlfattr::
If true, the server will look up the end-of-line conversion
attributes for files to determine the `-k` modes to use. If
the attributes force Git to treat a file as text,
the `-k` mode will be left blank so CVS clients will
treat it as text. If they suppress text conversion, the file
will be set with '-kb' mode, which suppresses any newline munging
the client might otherwise do. If the attributes do not allow
the file type to be determined, then `gitcvs.allBinary` is
used. See linkgit:gitattributes[5].
gitcvs.allBinary::
This is used if `gitcvs.usecrlfattr` does not resolve
the correct '-kb' mode to use. If true, all
unresolved files are sent to the client in
mode '-kb'. This causes the client to treat them
as binary files, which suppresses any newline munging it
otherwise might do. Alternatively, if it is set to "guess",
then the contents of the file are examined to decide if
it is binary, similar to `core.autocrlf`.
gitcvs.dbName::
Database used by git-cvsserver to cache revision information
derived from the Git repository. The exact meaning depends on the
used database driver, for SQLite (which is the default driver) this
is a filename. Supports variable substitution (see
linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details). May not contain semicolons (`;`).
Default: '%Ggitcvs.%m.sqlite'
gitcvs.dbDriver::
Used Perl DBI driver. You can specify any available driver
for this here, but it might not work. git-cvsserver is tested
with 'DBD::SQLite', reported to work with 'DBD::Pg', and
reported *not* to work with 'DBD::mysql'. Experimental feature.
May not contain double colons (`:`). Default: 'SQLite'.
See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1].
gitcvs.dbUser, gitcvs.dbPass::
Database user and password. Only useful if setting `gitcvs.dbDriver`,
since SQLite has no concept of database users and/or passwords.
'gitcvs.dbUser' supports variable substitution (see
linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details).
gitcvs.dbTableNamePrefix::
Database table name prefix. Prepended to the names of any
database tables used, allowing a single database to be used
for several repositories. Supports variable substitution (see
linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details). Any non-alphabetic
characters will be replaced with underscores.
All gitcvs variables except for `gitcvs.usecrlfattr` and
`gitcvs.allBinary` can also be specified as
'gitcvs.<access_method>.<varname>' (where 'access_method'
is one of "ext" and "pserver") to make them apply only for the given
access method.

pull.ff::
By default, Git does not create an extra merge commit when merging
a commit that is a descendant of the current commit. Instead, the
tip of the current branch is fast-forwarded. When set to `false`,
this variable tells Git to create an extra merge commit in such
a case (equivalent to giving the `--no-ff` option from the command
line). When set to `only`, only such fast-forward merges are
allowed (equivalent to giving the `--ff-only` option from the
command line). This setting overrides `merge.ff` when pulling.
pull.rebase::
When true, rebase branches on top of the fetched branch, instead
of merging the default branch from the default remote when "git
pull" is run. See "branch.<name>.rebase" for setting this on a
per-branch basis.
+
When `merges`, pass the `--rebase-merges` option to 'git rebase'
so that the local merge commits are included in the rebase (see
linkgit:git-rebase[1] for details).
+
When preserve, also pass `--preserve-merges` along to 'git rebase'
so that locally committed merge commits will not be flattened
by running 'git pull'.

push.default::
Defines the action `git push` should take if no refspec is
explicitly given. Different values are well-suited for
specific workflows; for instance, in a purely central workflow
(i.e. the fetch source is equal to the push destination),
`upstream` is probably what you want. Possible values are:
+
--
* `nothing` - do not push anything (error out) unless a refspec is
explicitly given. This is primarily meant for people who want to
avoid mistakes by always being explicit.
* `current` - push the current branch to update a branch with the same
name on the receiving end. Works in both central and non-central
workflows.
* `upstream` - push the current branch back to the branch whose
changes are usually integrated into the current branch (which is
called `@{upstream}`). This mode only makes sense if you are
pushing to the same repository you would normally pull from
(i.e. central workflow).
* `tracking` - This is a deprecated synonym for `upstream`.
* `simple` - in centralized workflow, work like `upstream` with an
added safety to refuse to push if the upstream branch's name is
different from the local one.
+
When pushing to a remote that is different from the remote you normally
pull from, work as `current`. This is the safest option and is suited
for beginners.
+
This mode has become the default in Git 2.0.
* `matching` - push all branches having the same name on both ends.
This makes the repository you are pushing to remember the set of
branches that will be pushed out (e.g. if you always push 'maint'
and 'master' there and no other branches, the repository you push
to will have these two branches, and your local 'maint' and
'master' will be pushed there).
+
To use this mode effectively, you have to make sure _all_ the
branches you would push out are ready to be pushed out before
running 'git push', as the whole point of this mode is to allow you
to push all of the branches in one go. If you usually finish work
on only one branch and push out the result, while other branches are
unfinished, this mode is not for you. Also this mode is not
suitable for pushing into a shared central repository, as other
people may add new branches there, or update the tip of existing
branches outside your control.
+
This used to be the default, but not since Git 2.0 (`simple` is the
new default).
--
push.followTags::
If set to true enable `--follow-tags` option by default. You
may override this configuration at time of push by specifying
`--no-follow-tags`.
push.gpgSign::
May be set to a boolean value, or the string 'if-asked'. A true
value causes all pushes to be GPG signed, as if `--signed` is
passed to linkgit:git-push[1]. The string 'if-asked' causes
pushes to be signed if the server supports it, as if
`--signed=if-asked` is passed to 'git push'. A false value may
override a value from a lower-priority config file. An explicit
command-line flag always overrides this config option.
push.pushOption::
When no `--push-option=<option>` argument is given from the
command line, `git push` behaves as if each <value> of
this variable is given as `--push-option=<value>`.
+
This is a multi-valued variable, and an empty value can be used in a
higher priority configuration file (e.g. `.git/config` in a
repository) to clear the values inherited from a lower priority
configuration files (e.g. `$HOME/.gitconfig`).
+
--
Example:
/etc/gitconfig
push.pushoption = a
push.pushoption = b
~/.gitconfig
push.pushoption = c
repo/.git/config
push.pushoption =
push.pushoption = b
This will result in only b (a and c are cleared).
--
push.recurseSubmodules::
Make sure all submodule commits used by the revisions to be pushed
are available on a remote-tracking branch. If the value is 'check'
then Git will verify that all submodule commits that changed in the
revisions to be pushed are available on at least one remote of the
submodule. If any commits are missing, the push will be aborted and
exit with non-zero status. If the value is 'on-demand' then all
submodules that changed in the revisions to be pushed will be
pushed. If on-demand was not able to push all necessary revisions
it will also be aborted and exit with non-zero status. If the value
is 'no' then default behavior of ignoring submodules when pushing
is retained. You may override this configuration at time of push by
specifying '--recurse-submodules=check|on-demand|no'.

receive.advertiseAtomic::
By default, git-receive-pack will advertise the atomic push
capability to its clients. If you don't want to advertise this
capability, set this variable to false.
receive.advertisePushOptions::
When set to true, git-receive-pack will advertise the push options
capability to its clients. False by default.
receive.autogc::
By default, git-receive-pack will run "git-gc --auto" after
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. See `transfer.fsckObjects` for what's checked.
Defaults to false. If not set, the value of
`transfer.fsckObjects` is used instead.
receive.fsck.<msg-id>::
Acts like `fsck.<msg-id>`, but is used by
linkgit:git-receive-pack[1] instead of
linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See the `fsck.<msg-id>` documentation for
details.
receive.fsck.skipList::
Acts like `fsck.skipList`, but is used by
linkgit:git-receive-pack[1] instead of
linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See the `fsck.skipList` documentation for
details.
receive.keepAlive::
After receiving the pack from the client, `receive-pack` may
produce no output (if `--quiet` was specified) while processing
the pack, causing some networks to drop the TCP connection.
With this option set, if `receive-pack` does not transmit
any data in this phase for `receive.keepAlive` seconds, it will
send a short keepalive packet. The default is 5 seconds; set
to 0 to disable keepalives entirely.
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. If not set, the value of
`transfer.unpackLimit` is used instead.
receive.maxInputSize::
If the size of the incoming pack stream is larger than this
limit, then git-receive-pack will error out, instead of
accepting the pack file. If not set or set to 0, then the size
is unlimited.
receive.denyDeletes::
If set to true, git-receive-pack will deny a ref update that deletes
the ref. Use this to prevent such a ref deletion via a push.
receive.denyDeleteCurrent::
If set to true, git-receive-pack will deny a ref update that
deletes the currently checked out branch of a non-bare repository.
receive.denyCurrentBranch::
If set to true or "refuse", git-receive-pack will deny a ref update
to the currently checked out branch of a non-bare repository.
Such a push is potentially dangerous because it brings the HEAD
out of sync with the index and working tree. If set to "warn",
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
tree 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.
+
By default, "updateInstead" will refuse the push if the working tree or
the index have any difference from the HEAD, but the `push-to-checkout`
hook can be used to customize this. See linkgit:githooks[5].
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.
receive.hideRefs::
This variable is the same as `transfer.hideRefs`, but applies
only to `receive-pack` (and so affects pushes, but not fetches).
An attempt to update or delete a hidden ref by `git push` is
rejected.
receive.updateServerInfo::
If set to true, git-receive-pack will run git-update-server-info
after receiving data from git-push and updating refs.
receive.shallowUpdate::
If set to true, .git/shallow can be updated when new refs
require new shallow roots. Otherwise those refs are rejected.

the `.gitmodules` file. See linkgit:git-submodule[1] and
linkgit:gitmodules[5] for details.
submodule.<name>.fetchRecurseSubmodules::
This option can be used to control recursive fetching of this
submodule. It can be overridden by using the --[no-]recurse-submodules
command-line option to "git fetch" and "git pull".
This setting will override that from in the linkgit:gitmodules[5]
file.
submodule.<name>.ignore::
Defines under what circumstances "git status" and the diff family show
a submodule as modified. When set to "all", it will never be considered
modified (but it will nonetheless show up in the output of status and
commit when it has been staged), "dirty" will ignore all changes
to the submodules work tree and
takes only differences between the HEAD of the submodule and the commit
recorded in the superproject into account. "untracked" will additionally
let submodules with modified tracked files in their work tree show up.
Using "none" (the default when this option is not set) also shows
submodules that have untracked files in their work tree as changed.
This setting overrides any setting made in .gitmodules for this submodule,
both settings can be overridden on the command line by using the
"--ignore-submodules" option. The 'git submodule' commands are not
affected by this setting.
submodule.<name>.active::
Boolean value indicating if the submodule is of interest to git
commands. This config option takes precedence over the
submodule.active config option. See linkgit:gitsubmodules[7] for
details.
submodule.active::
A repeated field which contains a pathspec used to match against a
submodule's path to determine if the submodule is of interest to git
commands. See linkgit:gitsubmodules[7] for details.
submodule.recurse::
Specifies if commands recurse into submodules by default. This
applies to all commands that have a `--recurse-submodules` option,
except `clone`.
Defaults to false.
submodule.fetchJobs::
Specifies how many submodules are fetched/cloned at the same time.
A positive integer allows up to that number of submodules fetched
in parallel. A value of 0 will give some reasonable default.
If unset, it defaults to 1.
submodule.alternateLocation::
Specifies how the submodules obtain alternates when submodules are
cloned. Possible values are `no`, `superproject`.
By default `no` is assumed, which doesn't add references. When the
value is set to `superproject` the submodule to be cloned computes
its alternates location relative to the superprojects alternate.
submodule.alternateErrorStrategy::
Specifies how to treat errors with the alternates for a submodule
as computed via `submodule.alternateLocation`. Possible values are
`ignore`, `info`, `die`. Default is `die`.
