- Updates to a ref <ref> is logged to the file
+ Enable the reflog. Updates to a ref <ref> is logged to the file
"$GIT_DIR/logs/<ref>", by appending the new and old
SHA1, the date/time and the reason of the update, but

apply.whitespace::
Tells `git-apply` how to handle whitespaces, in the same way
or `untracked` (files which are not tracked by git). The values of
these variables may be specified as in color.branch.<slot>.
+commit.template::
+ Specify a file to use as the template for new commit messages.
+
+diff.autorefreshindex::
+ When using `git diff` to compare with work tree
+ files, do not consider stat-only change as changed.
+ Instead, silently run `git update-index --refresh` to
+ update the cached stat information for paths whose
+ contents in the work tree match the contents in the
+ index. This option defaults to true. Note that this

+ `diff` commands, such as `git diff-files`.
+
diff.renameLimit::
The number of files to consider when performing the copy/rename
detection; equivalent to the git diff option '-l'.

gitcvs.enabled::
- Whether the cvs server interface is enabled for this repository.
+ Whether the CVS server interface is enabled for this repository.
See gitlink:git-cvsserver[1].
gitcvs.logfile::
- Path to a log file where the cvs server interface well... logs

various stuff. See gitlink:git-cvsserver[1].
gitcvs.allbinary::
'gitcvs.dbuser' supports variable substitution (see
gitlink:git-cvsserver[1] for details).
-All gitcvs variables except for 'gitcvs.allbinary' can also specifed
-as 'gitcvs.<access_method>.<varname>' (where 'access_method' is one
-of "ext" and "pserver") to make them apply only for the given access
-method.

Whether to verify the SSL certificate when fetching or pushing
not set, defaults to -1.
pack.deltaCacheSize::
- The maxium memory in bytes used for caching deltas in
+ The maximum memory in bytes used for caching deltas in
gitlink:git-pack-objects[1].
A value of 0 means no limit. Defaults to 0.
pack.deltaCacheLimit::
- The maxium size of a delta, that is cached in
+ The maximum size of a delta, that is cached in
gitlink:git-pack-objects[1]. Defaults to 1000.
+pack.threads::
+ Specifies the number of threads to spawn when searching for best
+ delta matches. This requires that gitlink:git-pack-objects[1]
+ be compiled with pthreads otherwise this option is ignored with a
+ warning. This is meant to reduce packing time on multiprocessor
+ machines. The required amount of memory for the delta search window
+ is however multiplied by the number of threads.
+
pull.octopus::
The default merge strategy to use when pulling multiple branches
at once.
See gitlink:git-show-branch[1].
tar.umask::
- By default, gitlink:git-tar-tree[1] sets file and directories modes
- to 0666 or 0777. While this is both useful and acceptable for projects
- such as the Linux Kernel, it might be excessive for other projects.
- With this variable, it becomes possible to tell
- gitlink:git-tar-tree[1] to apply a specific umask to the modes above.
- The special value "user" indicates that the user's current umask will
- be used. This should be enough for most projects, as it will lead to
- the same permissions as gitlink:git-checkout[1] would use. The default
- value remains 0, which means world read-write.
+ This variable can be used to restrict the permission bits of
+ tar archive entries. The default is 0002, which turns off the
+ world write bit. The special value "user" indicates that the
+ archiving user's umask will be used instead. See umask(2) and
+ gitlink:git-archive[1].
user.email::
Your email address to be recorded in any newly created commits.
