If 'dotGitOnly', only the `.git/` - directory is hidden, but no other files starting with a dot. The - default mode is 'dotGitOnly'. - -core.ignoreCase:: - Internal variable which enables various workarounds to enable - Git to work better on filesystems that are not case sensitive, - like APFS, HFS+, FAT, NTFS, etc. For example, if a directory listing - finds "makefile" when Git expects "Makefile", Git will assume - it is really the same file, and continue to remember it as - "Makefile". -+ -The default is false, except linkgit:git-clone[1] or linkgit:git-init[1] -will probe and set core.ignoreCase true if appropriate when the repository -is created. -+ -Git relies on the proper configuration of this variable for your operating -and file system. Modifying this value may result in unexpected behavior. - -core.precomposeUnicode:: - This option is only used by Mac OS implementation of Git. - When core.precomposeUnicode=true, Git reverts the unicode decomposition - of filenames done by Mac OS. This is useful when sharing a repository - between Mac OS and Linux or Windows. - (Git for Windows 1.7.10 or higher is needed, or Git under cygwin 1.7). - When false, file names are handled fully transparent by Git, - which is backward compatible with older versions of Git. - -core.protectHFS:: - If set to true, do not allow checkout of paths that would - be considered equivalent to `.git` on an HFS+ filesystem. - Defaults to `true` on Mac OS, and `false` elsewhere. - -core.protectNTFS:: - If set to true, do not allow checkout of paths that would - cause problems with the NTFS filesystem, e.g. conflict with - 8.3 "short" names. - Defaults to `true` on Windows, and `false` elsewhere. - -core.fsmonitor:: - If set, the value of this variable is used as a command which - will identify all files that may have changed since the - requested date/time. This information is used to speed up git by - avoiding unnecessary processing of files that have not changed. - See the "fsmonitor-watchman" section of linkgit:githooks[5]. - -core.fsmonitorHookVersion:: - Sets the version of hook that is to be used when calling fsmonitor. - There are currently versions 1 and 2. When this is not set, - version 2 will be tried first and if it fails then version 1 - will be tried. Version 1 uses a timestamp as input to determine - which files have changes since that time but some monitors - like watchman have race conditions when used with a timestamp. - Version 2 uses an opaque string so that the monitor can return - something that can be used to determine what files have changed - without race conditions. - -core.trustctime:: - If false, the ctime differences between the index and the - working tree are ignored; useful when the inode change time - is regularly modified by something outside Git (file system - crawlers and some backup systems). - See linkgit:git-update-index[1]. True by default. - -core.splitIndex:: - If true, the split-index feature of the index will be used. - See linkgit:git-update-index[1]. False by default. - -core.untrackedCache:: - Determines what to do about the untracked cache feature of the - index. It will be kept, if this variable is unset or set to - `keep`. It will automatically be added if set to `true`. And - it will automatically be removed, if set to `false`. Before - setting it to `true`, you should check that mtime is working - properly on your system. - See linkgit:git-update-index[1]. `keep` by default, unless - `feature.manyFiles` is enabled which sets this setting to - `true` by default. - -core.checkStat:: - When missing or is set to `default`, many fields in the stat - structure are checked to detect if a file has been modified - since Git looked at it. When this configuration variable is - set to `minimal`, sub-second part of mtime and ctime, the - uid and gid of the owner of the file, the inode number (and - the device number, if Git was compiled to use it), are - excluded from the check among these fields, leaving only the - whole-second part of mtime (and ctime, if `core.trustCtime` - is set) and the filesize to be checked. -+ -There are implementations of Git that do not leave usable values in -some fields (e.g. JGit); by excluding these fields from the -comparison, the `minimal` mode may help interoperability when the -same repository is used by these other systems at the same time. - -core.quotePath:: - Commands that output paths (e.g. 'ls-files', 'diff'), will - quote "unusual" characters in the pathname by enclosing the - pathname in double-quotes and escaping those characters with - backslashes in the same way C escapes control characters (e.g. - `\t` for TAB, `\n` for LF, `\\` for backslash) or bytes with - values larger than 0x80 (e.g. octal `\302\265` for "micro" in - UTF-8). If this variable is set to false, bytes higher than - 0x80 are not considered "unusual" any more. Double-quotes, - backslash and control characters are always escaped regardless - of the setting of this variable. A simple space character is - not considered "unusual". Many commands can output pathnames - completely verbatim using the `-z` option. The default value - is true. - -core.eol:: - Sets the line ending type to use in the working directory for - files that are marked as text (either by having the `text` - attribute set, or by having `text=auto` and Git auto-detecting - the contents as text). - Alternatives are 'lf', 'crlf' and 'native', which uses the platform's - native line ending. The default value is `native`. See - linkgit:gitattributes[5] for more information on end-of-line - conversion. Note that this value is ignored if `core.autocrlf` - is set to `true` or `input`. - -core.safecrlf:: - If true, makes Git check if converting `CRLF` is reversible when - end-of-line conversion is active. Git will verify if a command - modifies a file in the work tree either directly or indirectly. - For example, committing a file followed by checking out the - same file should yield the original file in the work tree. If - this is not the case for the current setting of - `core.autocrlf`, Git will reject the file. The variable can - be set to "warn", in which case Git will only warn about an - irreversible conversion but continue the operation. -+ -CRLF conversion bears a slight chance of corrupting data. -When it is enabled, Git will convert CRLF to LF during commit and LF to -CRLF during checkout. A file that contains a mixture of LF and -CRLF before the commit cannot be recreated by Git. For text -files this is the right thing to do: it corrects line endings -such that we have only LF line endings in the repository. -But for binary files that are accidentally classified as text the -conversion can corrupt data. -+ -If you recognize such corruption early you can easily fix it by -setting the conversion type explicitly in .gitattributes. Right -after committing you still have the original file in your work -tree and this file is not yet corrupted. You can explicitly tell -Git that this file is binary and Git will handle the file -appropriately. -+ -Unfortunately, the desired effect of cleaning up text files with -mixed line endings and the undesired effect of corrupting binary -files cannot be distinguished. In both cases CRLFs are removed -in an irreversible way. For text files this is the right thing -to do because CRLFs are line endings, while for binary files -converting CRLFs corrupts data. -+ -Note, this safety check does not mean that a checkout will generate a -file identical to the original file for a different setting of -`core.eol` and `core.autocrlf`, but only for the current one. For -example, a text file with `LF` would be accepted with `core.eol=lf` -and could later be checked out with `core.eol=crlf`, in which case the -resulting file would contain `CRLF`, although the original file -contained `LF`. However, in both work trees the line endings would be -consistent, that is either all `LF` or all `CRLF`, but never mixed. A -file with mixed line endings would be reported by the `core.safecrlf` -mechanism. - -core.autocrlf:: - Setting this variable to "true" is the same as setting - the `text` attribute to "auto" on all files and core.eol to "crlf". - Set to true if you want to have `CRLF` line endings in your - working directory and the repository has LF line endings. - This variable can be set to 'input', - in which case no output conversion is performed. - -core.checkRoundtripEncoding:: - A comma and/or whitespace separated list of encodings that Git - performs UTF-8 round trip checks on if they are used in an - `working-tree-encoding` attribute (see linkgit:gitattributes[5]). - The default value is `SHIFT-JIS`. - -core.symlinks:: - If false, symbolic links are checked out as small plain files that - contain the link text. linkgit:git-update-index[1] and - linkgit:git-add[1] will not change the recorded type to regular - file. Useful on filesystems like FAT that do not support - symbolic links. -+ -The default is true, except linkgit:git-clone[1] or linkgit:git-init[1] -will probe and set core.symlinks false if appropriate when the repository -is created. - -core.gitProxy:: - A "proxy command" to execute (as 'command host port') instead - of establishing direct connection to the remote server when - using the Git protocol for fetching. If the variable value is - in the "COMMAND for DOMAIN" format, the command is applied only - on hostnames ending with the specified domain string. This variable - may be set multiple times and is matched in the given order; - the first match wins. -+ -Can be overridden by the `GIT_PROXY_COMMAND` environment variable -(which always applies universally, without the special "for" -handling). -+ -The special string `none` can be used as the proxy command to -specify that no proxy be used for a given domain pattern. -This is useful for excluding servers inside a firewall from -proxy use, while defaulting to a common proxy for external domains. - -core.sshCommand:: - If this variable is set, `git fetch` and `git push` will - use the specified command instead of `ssh` when they need to - connect to a remote system. The command is in the same form as - the `GIT_SSH_COMMAND` environment variable and is overridden - when the environment variable is set. - -core.ignoreStat:: - If true, Git will avoid using lstat() calls to detect if files have - changed by setting the "assume-unchanged" bit for those tracked files - which it has updated identically in both the index and working tree. -+ -When files are modified outside of Git, the user will need to stage -the modified files explicitly (e.g. see 'Examples' section in -linkgit:git-update-index[1]). -Git will not normally detect changes to those files. -+ -This is useful on systems where lstat() calls are very slow, such as -CIFS/Microsoft Windows. -+ -False by default. - -core.preferSymlinkRefs:: - Instead of the default "symref" format for HEAD - and other symbolic reference files, use symbolic links. - This is sometimes needed to work with old scripts that - expect HEAD to be a symbolic link. - -core.alternateRefsCommand:: - When advertising tips of available history from an alternate, use the shell to - execute the specified command instead of linkgit:git-for-each-ref[1]. The - first argument is the absolute path of the alternate. Output must contain one - hex object id per line (i.e., the same as produced by `git for-each-ref - --format='%(objectname)'`). -+ -Note that you cannot generally put `git for-each-ref` directly into the config -value, as it does not take a repository path as an argument (but you can wrap -the command above in a shell script). - -core.alternateRefsPrefixes:: - When listing references from an alternate, list only references that begin - with the given prefix. Prefixes match as if they were given as arguments to - linkgit:git-for-each-ref[1]. To list multiple prefixes, separate them with - whitespace. If `core.alternateRefsCommand` is set, setting - `core.alternateRefsPrefixes` has no effect. - -core.bare:: - If true this repository is assumed to be 'bare' and has no - working directory associated with it. If this is the case a - number of commands that require a working directory will be - disabled, such as linkgit:git-add[1] or linkgit:git-merge[1]. -+ -This setting is automatically guessed by linkgit:git-clone[1] or -linkgit:git-init[1] when the repository was created. By default a -repository that ends in "/.git" is assumed to be not bare (bare = -false), while all other repositories are assumed to be bare (bare -= true). - -core.worktree:: - Set the path to the root of the working tree. - If `GIT_COMMON_DIR` environment variable is set, core.worktree - is ignored and not used for determining the root of working tree. - This can be overridden by the `GIT_WORK_TREE` environment - variable and the `--work-tree` command-line option. - The value can be an absolute path or relative to the path to - the .git directory, which is either specified by --git-dir - or GIT_DIR, or automatically discovered. - If --git-dir or GIT_DIR is specified but none of - --work-tree, GIT_WORK_TREE and core.worktree is specified, - the current working directory is regarded as the top level - of your working tree. -+ -Note that this variable is honored even when set in a configuration -file in a ".git" subdirectory of a directory and its value differs -from the latter directory (e.g. "/path/to/.git/config" has -core.worktree set to "/different/path"), which is most likely a -misconfiguration. Running Git commands in the "/path/to" directory will -still use "/different/path" as the root of the work tree and can cause -confusion unless you know what you are doing (e.g. you are creating a -read-only snapshot of the same index to a location different from the -repository's usual working tree). - -core.logAllRefUpdates:: - Enable the reflog. Updates to a ref <ref> is logged to the file - "`$GIT_DIR/logs/<ref>`", by appending the new and old - SHA-1, the date/time and the reason of the update, but - only when the file exists. If this configuration - variable is set to `true`, missing "`$GIT_DIR/logs/<ref>`" - file is automatically created for branch heads (i.e. under - `refs/heads/`), remote refs (i.e. under `refs/remotes/`), - note refs (i.e. under `refs/notes/`), and the symbolic ref `HEAD`. - If it is set to `always`, then a missing reflog is automatically - created for any ref under `refs/`. -+ -This information can be used to determine what commit -was the tip of a branch "2 days ago". -+ -This value is true by default in a repository that has -a working directory associated with it, and false by -default in a bare repository. - -core.repositoryFormatVersion:: - Internal variable identifying the repository format and layout - version. - -core.sharedRepository:: - When 'group' (or 'true'), the repository is made shareable between - several users in a group (making sure all the files and objects are - group-writable). When 'all' (or 'world' or 'everybody'), the - repository will be readable by all users, additionally to being - group-shareable. When 'umask' (or 'false'), Git will use permissions - reported by umask(2). When '0xxx', where '0xxx' is an octal number, - files in the repository will have this mode value. '0xxx' will override - user's umask value (whereas the other options will only override - requested parts of the user's umask value). Examples: '0660' will make - the repo read/write-able for the owner and group, but inaccessible to - others (equivalent to 'group' unless umask is e.g. '0022'). '0640' is a - repository that is group-readable but not group-writable. - See linkgit:git-init[1]. False by default. - -core.warnAmbiguousRefs:: - If true, Git will warn you if the ref name you passed it is ambiguous - and might match multiple refs in the repository. 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. - If set, this provides a default to other compression variables, - such as `core.looseCompression` and `pack.compression`. - -core.looseCompression:: - An integer -1..9, indicating the compression level for objects that - 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. If not set, defaults to core.compression. If that is - not set, defaults to 1 (best speed). - -core.packedGitWindowSize:: - Number of bytes of a pack file to map into memory in a - single mapping operation. Larger window sizes may allow - your system to process a smaller number of large pack files - more quickly. Smaller window sizes will negatively affect - performance due to increased calls to the operating system's - memory manager, but may improve performance when accessing - a large number of large pack files. -+ -Default is 1 MiB if NO_MMAP was set at compile time, otherwise 32 -MiB on 32 bit platforms and 1 GiB on 64 bit platforms. This should -be reasonable for all users/operating systems. You probably do -not need to adjust this value. -+ -Common unit suffixes of 'k', 'm', or 'g' are supported. - -core.packedGitLimit:: - Maximum number of bytes to map simultaneously into memory - from pack files. If Git needs to access more than this many - bytes at once to complete an operation it will unmap existing - regions to reclaim virtual address space within the process. -+ -Default is 256 MiB on 32 bit platforms and 32 TiB (effectively -unlimited) on 64 bit platforms. -This should be reasonable for all users/operating systems, except on -the largest projects. You probably do not need to adjust this value. -+ -Common unit suffixes of 'k', 'm', or 'g' are supported. - -core.deltaBaseCacheLimit:: - Maximum number of bytes per thread to reserve for caching base objects - that may be referenced by multiple deltified objects. By storing the - entire decompressed base objects in a cache Git is able - to avoid unpacking and decompressing frequently used base - objects multiple times. -+ -Default is 96 MiB on all platforms. This should be reasonable -for all users/operating systems, except on the largest projects. -You probably do not need to adjust this value. -+ -Common unit suffixes of 'k', 'm', or 'g' are supported. - -core.bigFileThreshold:: - Files larger than this size are stored deflated, without - attempting delta compression. Storing large files without - delta compression avoids excessive memory usage, at the - slight expense of increased disk usage. Additionally files - larger than this size are always treated as binary. -+ -Default is 512 MiB on all platforms. This should be reasonable -for most projects as source code and other text files can still -be delta compressed, but larger binary media files won't be. -+ -Common unit suffixes of 'k', 'm', or 'g' are supported. - -core.excludesFile:: - Specifies the pathname to the file that contains patterns to - describe paths that are not meant to be tracked, in addition - to `.gitignore` (per-directory) and `.git/info/exclude`. - Defaults to `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/ignore`. - If `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is either not set or empty, `$HOME/.config/git/ignore` - is used instead. See linkgit:gitignore[5]. - -core.askPass:: - Some commands (e.g. svn and http interfaces) that interactively - ask for a password can be told to use an external program given - via the value of this variable. Can be overridden by the `GIT_ASKPASS` - environment variable. If not set, fall back to the value of the - `SSH_ASKPASS` environment variable or, failing that, a simple password - prompt. The external program shall be given a suitable prompt as - command-line argument and write the password on its STDOUT. - -core.attributesFile:: - In addition to `.gitattributes` (per-directory) and - `.git/info/attributes`, Git looks into this file for attributes - (see linkgit:gitattributes[5]). Path expansions are made the same - way as for `core.excludesFile`. Its default value is - `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/attributes`. If `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is either not - set or empty, `$HOME/.config/git/attributes` is used instead. - -core.hooksPath:: - By default Git will look for your hooks in the - `$GIT_DIR/hooks` directory. Set this to different path, - e.g. `/etc/git/hooks`, and Git will try to find your hooks in - that directory, e.g. `/etc/git/hooks/pre-receive` instead of - in `$GIT_DIR/hooks/pre-receive`. -+ -The path can be either absolute or relative. A relative path is -taken as relative to the directory where the hooks are run (see -the "DESCRIPTION" section of linkgit:githooks[5]). -+ -This configuration variable is useful in cases where you'd like to -centrally configure your Git hooks instead of configuring them on a -per-repository basis, or as a more flexible and centralized -alternative to having an `init.templateDir` where you've changed -default hooks. - -core.editor:: - Commands such as `commit` and `tag` that let you edit - messages by launching an editor use the value of this - variable when it is set, and the environment variable - `GIT_EDITOR` is not set. See linkgit:git-var[1]. - -core.commentChar:: - Commands such as `commit` and `tag` that let you edit - messages consider a line that begins with this character - commented, and removes them after the editor returns - (default '#'). -+ -If set to "auto", `git-commit` would select a character that is not -the beginning character of any line in existing commit messages. - -core.filesRefLockTimeout:: - The length of time, in milliseconds, to retry when trying to - lock an individual reference. Value 0 means not to retry at - all; -1 means to try indefinitely. Default is 100 (i.e., - retry for 100ms). - -core.packedRefsTimeout:: - The length of time, in milliseconds, to retry when trying to - lock the `packed-refs` file. Value 0 means not to retry at - all; -1 means to try indefinitely. Default is 1000 (i.e., - retry for 1 second). - -core.pager:: - Text viewer for use by Git commands (e.g., 'less'). The value - is meant to be interpreted by the shell. The order of preference - is the `$GIT_PAGER` environment variable, then `core.pager` - configuration, then `$PAGER`, and then the default chosen at - compile time (usually 'less'). -+ -When the `LESS` environment variable is unset, Git sets it to `FRX` -(if `LESS` environment variable is set, Git does not change it at -all). If you want to selectively override Git's default setting -for `LESS`, you can set `core.pager` to e.g. `less -S`. This will -be passed to the shell by Git, which will translate the final -command to `LESS=FRX less -S`. The environment does not set the -`S` option but the command line does, instructing less to truncate -long lines. Similarly, setting `core.pager` to `less -+F` will -deactivate the `F` option specified by the environment from the -command-line, deactivating the "quit if one screen" behavior of -`less`. One can specifically activate some flags for particular -commands: for example, setting `pager.blame` to `less -S` enables -line truncation only for `git blame`. -+ -Likewise, when the `LV` environment variable is unset, Git sets it -to `-c`. You can override this setting by exporting `LV` with -another value or setting `core.pager` to `lv +c`. - -core.whitespace:: - A comma separated list of common whitespace problems to - notice. 'git diff' will use `color.diff.whitespace` to - highlight them, and 'git apply --whitespace=error' will - consider them as errors. You can prefix `-` to disable - any of them (e.g. `-trailing-space`): -+ -* `blank-at-eol` treats trailing whitespaces at the end of the line - as an error (enabled by default). -* `space-before-tab` treats a space character that appears immediately - before a tab character in the initial indent part of the line as an - error (enabled by default). -* `indent-with-non-tab` treats a line that is indented with space - characters instead of the equivalent tabs as an error (not enabled by - default). -* `tab-in-indent` treats a tab character in the initial indent part of - the line as an error (not enabled by default). -* `blank-at-eof` treats blank lines added at the end of file as an error - (enabled by default). -* `trailing-space` is a short-hand to cover both `blank-at-eol` and - `blank-at-eof`. -* `cr-at-eol` treats a carriage-return at the end of line as - part of the line terminator, i.e. with it, `trailing-space` - does not trigger if the character before such a carriage-return - is not a whitespace (not enabled by default). -* `tabwidth=<n>` tells how many character positions a tab occupies; this - is relevant for `indent-with-non-tab` and when Git fixes `tab-in-indent` - errors. The default tab width is 8. Allowed values are 1 to 63. - -core.fsyncObjectFiles:: - This boolean will enable 'fsync()' when writing object files. -+ -This is a total waste of time and effort on a filesystem that orders -data writes properly, but can be useful for filesystems that do not use -journalling (traditional UNIX filesystems) or that only journal metadata -and not file contents (OS X's HFS+, or Linux ext3 with "data=writeback"). - -core.preloadIndex:: - Enable parallel index preload for operations like 'git diff' -+ -This can speed up operations like 'git diff' and 'git status' especially -on filesystems like NFS that have weak caching semantics and thus -relatively high IO latencies. When enabled, Git will do the -index comparison to the filesystem data in parallel, allowing -overlapping IO's. Defaults to true. - -core.unsetenvvars:: - Windows-only: comma-separated list of environment variables' - names that need to be unset before spawning any other process. - Defaults to `PERL5LIB` to account for the fact that Git for - Windows insists on using its own Perl interpreter. - -core.restrictinheritedhandles:: - Windows-only: override whether spawned processes inherit only standard - file handles (`stdin`, `stdout` and `stderr`) or all handles. Can be - `auto`, `true` or `false`. Defaults to `auto`, which means `true` on - Windows 7 and later, and `false` on older Windows versions. - -core.createObject:: - You can set this to 'link', in which case a hardlink followed by - a delete of the source are used to make sure that object creation - will not overwrite existing objects. -+ -On some file system/operating system combinations, this is unreliable. -Set this config setting to 'rename' there; However, This will remove the -check that makes sure that existing object files will not get overwritten. - -core.notesRef:: - When showing commit messages, also show notes which are stored in - the given ref. The ref must be fully qualified. If the given - ref does not exist, it is not an error but means that no - notes should be printed. -+ -This setting defaults to "refs/notes/commits", and it can be overridden by -the `GIT_NOTES_REF` environment variable. See linkgit:git-notes[1]. - -core.commitGraph:: - If true, then git will read the commit-graph file (if it exists) - to parse the graph structure of commits. Defaults to true. See - linkgit:git-commit-graph[1] for more information. - -core.useReplaceRefs:: - If set to `false`, behave as if the `--no-replace-objects` - option was given on the command line. See linkgit:git[1] and - linkgit:git-replace[1] for more information. - -core.multiPackIndex:: - Use the multi-pack-index file to track multiple packfiles using a - single index. See link:technical/multi-pack-index.html[the - multi-pack-index design document]. - -core.sparseCheckout:: - Enable "sparse checkout" feature. See linkgit:git-sparse-checkout[1] - for more information. - -core.sparseCheckoutCone:: - Enables the "cone mode" of the sparse checkout feature. When the - sparse-checkout file contains a limited set of patterns, then this - mode provides significant performance advantages. See - linkgit:git-sparse-checkout[1] for more information. - -core.abbrev:: - Set the length object names are abbreviated to. If - unspecified or set to "auto", an appropriate value is - computed based on the approximate number of packed objects - in your repository, which hopefully is enough for - abbreviated object names to stay unique for some time. - The minimum length is 4. |
