apply.whitespace::
Tells `git-apply` how to handle whitespaces, in the same way

branch.<name>.merge::
- When in branch <name>, it tells `git fetch` the default refspec to

clean.requireForce::
- A boolean to make git-clean do nothing unless given -f or -n. Defaults

Specify a file to use as the template for new commit messages.
+diff.autorefreshindex::

+ 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

The number of files to consider when performing the copy/rename
detection; equivalent to the git diff option '-l'.

to 10.
+gc.auto::
+ When there are approximately more than this many loose
+ objects in the repository, `git gc --auto` will pack them.
+ Some Porcelain commands use this command to perform a
+ light-weight garbage collection from time to time. Setting
+ this to 0 disables it.
+
+gc.autopacklimit::
+ When there are more than this many packs that are not
+ marked with `*.keep` file in the repository, `git gc
+ --auto` consolidates them into one larger pack. Setting

+
gc.packrefs::
`git gc` does not run `git pack-refs` in a bare repository by
default so that older dumb-transport clients can still fetch
be encountered again. See gitlink:git-rerere[1].

- Whether the cvs server interface is enabled for this repository.

+ gitlink:git-mergetool[1]. Valid values are: "kdiff3", "tkdiff",

merge.verbosity::
message if conflicts were detected. Level 1 outputs only

+ The maximum size of a delta, that is cached in

+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.
+
+pack.indexVersion::
+ Specify the default pack index version. Valid values are 1 for
+ legacy pack index used by Git versions prior to 1.5.2, and 2 for
+ the new pack index with capabilities for packs larger than 4 GB
+ as well as proper protection against the repacking of corrupted
