+	Defines how wide the commit message window is in the
+	linkgit:git-gui[1]. "75" is the default.
+

+	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].

+	for relevant files (see linkgit:gitattributes[5]).
+	If this option is not set, the tools default to the
+	locale encoding.

+	Determines if new branches created with linkgit:git-gui[1] should
+	default to tracking remote branches with matching names or
+	not. Default: "false".
+

+	Is used as suggested name when creating new branches using the
+	linkgit:git-gui[1].

+	If true, 'git gui blame' uses `-C` instead of `-C -C` for original

+	repositories at the expense of less thorough copy detection.

+	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
+	linkgit:gitk[1] for the selected commit, when the `Show History
+	Context` menu item is invoked from 'git gui blame'. If this
+	variable is set to zero, the whole history is shown.
