# Proxy settings
[core]
- gitProxy="ssh" for "ssh://kernel.org/"
+ gitProxy="ssh" for "kernel.org"
gitProxy=default-proxy ; for the rest
Variables
the working copy are ignored; useful on broken filesystems like FAT.
See gitlink:git-update-index[1]. True by default.
+core.quotepath::
+ The commands that output paths (e.g. `ls-files`,
+ `diff`), when not given the `-z` option, will quote
+ "unusual" characters in the pathname by enclosing the
+ pathname in a double-quote pair and with backslashes the
+ same way strings in C source code are quoted. If this
+ variable is set to false, the bytes higher than 0x80 are
+ not quoted but output as verbatim. Note that double
+ quote, backslash and control characters are always
+ quoted without `-z` regardless of the setting of this
+ variable.
+
core.autocrlf::
If true, makes git convert `CRLF` at the end of lines in text files to
`LF` when reading from the filesystem, and convert in reverse when
false), while all other repositories are assumed to be bare (bare
= true).
+core.worktree::
+ Set the path to the working tree. The value will not be
+ used in combination with repositories found automatically in
+ a .git directory (i.e. $GIT_DIR is not set).
+ This can be overriden by the GIT_WORK_TREE environment
+ variable and the '--work-tree' command line option.
+
core.logAllRefUpdates::
Updates to a ref <ref> is logged to the file
"$GIT_DIR/logs/<ref>", by appending the new and old
and might match multiple refs in the .git/refs/ tree. True by default.
core.compression::
+ An integer -1..9, indicating a default compression level.
+ -1 is the zlib default. 0 means no compression,
+ and 1..9 are various speed/size tradeoffs, 9 being slowest.
+
+core.loosecompression::
An integer -1..9, indicating the compression level for objects that
- are not in a pack file. -1 is the zlib and git default. 0 means no
+ are not in a pack file. -1 is the zlib default. 0 means no
compression, and 1..9 are various speed/size tradeoffs, 9 being
- slowest.
-
-core.legacyheaders::
- A boolean which
- changes the format of loose objects so that they are more
- efficient to pack and to send out of the repository over git
- native protocol, since v1.4.2. However, loose objects
- written in the new format cannot be read by git older than
- that version; people fetching from your repository using
- older versions of git over dumb transports (e.g. http)
- will also be affected.
-+
-To let git use the new loose object format, you have to
-set core.legacyheaders to false.
+ slowest. If not set, defaults to core.compression. If that is
+ not set, defaults to 0 (best speed).
core.packedGitWindowSize::
Number of bytes of a pack file to map into memory in a
of files which are not meant to be tracked. See
gitlink:gitignore[5].
+core.editor::
+ Commands such as `commit` and `tag` that lets you edit
+ messages by lauching an editor uses the value of this
+ variable when it is set, and the environment variable
+ `GIT_EDITOR` is not set. The order of preference is
+ `GIT_EDITOR` environment, `core.editor`, `VISUAL` and
+ `EDITOR` environment variables and then finally `vi`.
+
+core.pager::
+ The command that git will use to paginate output. Can be overridden
+ with the `GIT_PAGER` environment variable.
+
alias.*::
Command aliases for the gitlink:git[1] command wrapper - e.g.
after defining "alias.last = cat-file commit HEAD", the invocation
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.renameLimit::
The number of files to consider when performing the copy/rename
detection; equivalent to the git diff option '-l'.
`.patch`. Use this variable to change that suffix (make sure to
include the dot if you want it).
+gc.aggressiveWindow::
+ The window size parameter used in the delta compression
+ algorithm used by 'git gc --aggressive'. This defaults
+ to 10.
+
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
kept for this many days when `git rerere gc` is run.
The default is 15 days. See gitlink:git-rerere[1].
+rerere.enabled::
+ Activate recording of resolved conflicts, so that identical
+ conflict hunks can be resolved automatically, should they
+ be encountered again. See gitlink:git-rerere[1].
+
gitcvs.enabled::
Whether the cvs server interface is enabled for this repository.
See gitlink:git-cvsserver[1].
merge.tool::
Controls which merge resolution program is used by
gitlink:git-mergetool[l]. Valid values are: "kdiff3", "tkdiff",
- "meld", "xxdiff", "emerge", "vimdiff", and "opendiff"
+ "meld", "xxdiff", "emerge", "vimdiff", "gvimdiff", and "opendiff".
merge.verbosity::
Controls the amount of output shown by the recursive merge
message if conflicts were detected. Level 1 outputs only
conflicts, 2 outputs conflicts and file changes. Level 5 and
above outputs debugging information. The default is level 2.
+ Can be overriden by 'GIT_MERGE_VERBOSITY' environment variable.
merge.<driver>.name::
Defines a human readable name for a custom low-level
The maximum delta depth used by gitlink:git-pack-objects[1] when no
maximum depth is given on the command line. Defaults to 50.
+pack.windowMemory::
+ The window memory size limit used by gitlink:git-pack-objects[1]
+ when no limit is given on the command line. The value can be
+ suffixed with "k", "m", or "g". Defaults to 0, meaning no
+ limit.
+
+pack.compression::
+ An integer -1..9, indicating the compression level for objects
+ in a pack file. -1 is the zlib default. 0 means no
+ compression, and 1..9 are various speed/size tradeoffs, 9 being
+ slowest. If not set, defaults to core.compression. If that is
+ not set, defaults to -1.
+
+pack.deltaCacheSize::
+ The maxium 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
+ gitlink:git-pack-objects[1]. Defaults to 1000.
+
pull.octopus::
The default merge strategy to use when pulling multiple branches
at once.
transfer.unpackLimit::
When `fetch.unpackLimit` or `receive.unpackLimit` are
not set, the value of this variable is used instead.
