the working copy are ignored; useful on broken filesystems like FAT.
See linkgit:git-update-index[1]. True by default.
+core.ignoreCygwinFSTricks::
+ This option is only used by Cygwin implementation of Git. If false,
+ the Cygwin stat() and lstat() functions are used. This may be useful
+ if your repository consists of a few separate directories joined in
+ one hierarchy using Cygwin mount. If true, Git uses native Win32 API
+ whenever it is possible and falls back to Cygwin functions only to
+ handle symbol links. The native mode is more than twice faster than
+ normal Cygwin l/stat() functions. True by default, unless core.filemode
+ is true, in which case ignoreCygwinFSTricks is ignored as Cygwin's
+ POSIX emulation is required to support core.filemode.
+
core.trustctime::
If false, the ctime differences between the index and the
working copy are ignored; useful when the inode change time
affects only 'git-diff' Porcelain, and not lower level
'diff' commands, such as 'git-diff-files'.
+diff.suppress-blank-empty::
+ A boolean to inhibit the standard behavior of printing a space
+ before each empty output line. Defaults to false.
+
diff.external::
If this config variable is set, diff generation is not
performed using the internal diff machinery, but using the
you want to use an external diff program only on a subset of
your files, you might want to use linkgit:gitattributes[5] instead.
+diff.mnemonicprefix::
+ If set, 'git-diff' uses a prefix pair that is different from the
+ standard "a/" and "b/" depending on what is being compared. When
+ this configuration is in effect, reverse diff output also swaps
+ the order of the prefixes:
+'git-diff';;
+ compares the (i)ndex and the (w)ork tree;
+'git-diff HEAD';;
+ compares a (c)ommit and the (w)ork tree;
+'git diff --cached';;
+ compares a (c)ommit and the (i)ndex;
+'git-diff HEAD:file1 file2';;
+ compares an (o)bject and a (w)ork tree entity;
+'git diff --no-index a b';;
+ compares two non-git things (1) and (2).
+
diff.renameLimit::
The number of files to consider when performing the copy/rename
detection; equivalent to the 'git-diff' option '-l'.
`transfer.unpackLimit` is used instead.
format.numbered::
- A boolean which can enable sequence numbers in patch subjects.
- Setting this option to "auto" will enable it only if there is
- more than one patch. See --numbered option in
- linkgit:git-format-patch[1].
+ 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
Values 'man', 'info', 'web' and 'html' are supported. 'man' is
the default. 'web' and 'html' are the same.
+help.autocorrect::
+ Automatically correct and execute mistyped commands after
+ waiting for the given number of deciseconds (0.1 sec). If more
+ than one command can be deduced from the entered text, nothing
+ will be executed. If the value of this option is negative,
+ the corrected command will be executed immediately. If the
+ value is 0 - the command will be just shown but not executed.
+ This is the default.
+
http.proxy::
Override the HTTP proxy, normally configured using the 'http_proxy'
environment variable (see linkgit:curl[1]). This can be overridden
Override the path for the given tool that may be used to
display help in the 'man' format. See linkgit:git-help[1].
+merge.conflictstyle::
+ Specify the style in which conflicted hunks are written out to
+ working tree files upon merge. The default is "merge", which
+ shows `<<<<<<<` conflict marker, change made by one side,
+ `=======` marker, change made by the other side, and then
+ `>>>>>>>` marker. An alternate style, "diff3", adds `|||||||`
+ marker and the original text before `=======` marker.
+
mergetool.<tool>.path::
Override the path for the given tool. This is useful in case
your tool is not in the PATH.
especially on slow filesystems. If not set, the value of
`transfer.unpackLimit` is used instead.
+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.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.denyCurrentBranch::
+ If set to true or "refuse", 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 "warn".
+
transfer.unpackLimit::
When `fetch.unpackLimit` or `receive.unpackLimit` are
not set, the value of this variable is used instead.
