-gc.aggressiveDepth::
-	The depth parameter used in the delta compression
-	algorithm used by 'git gc --aggressive'.  This defaults
-	to 50, which is the default for the `--depth` option when
-	`--aggressive` isn't in use.
-+
-See the documentation for the `--depth` option in
-linkgit:git-repack[1] for more details.
-
-gc.aggressiveWindow::
-	The window size parameter used in the delta compression
-	algorithm used by 'git gc --aggressive'.  This defaults
-	to 250, which is a much more aggressive window size than
-	the default `--window` of 10.
-+
-See the documentation for the `--window` option in
-linkgit:git-repack[1] for more details.
-
-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.  The
-	default value is 6700.
-+
-Setting this to 0 disables not only automatic packing based on the
-number of loose objects, but any other heuristic `git gc --auto` will
-otherwise use to determine if there's work to do, such as
-`gc.autoPackLimit`.
-
-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.  The
-	default value is 50.  Setting this to 0 disables it.
-	Setting `gc.auto` to 0 will also disable this.
-+
-See the `gc.bigPackThreshold` configuration variable below. When in
-use, it'll affect how the auto pack limit works.
-
-gc.autoDetach::
-	Make `git gc --auto` return immediately and run in background
-	if the system supports it. Default is true.
-
-gc.bigPackThreshold::
-	If non-zero, all packs larger than this limit are kept when
-	`git gc` is run. This is very similar to `--keep-base-pack`
-	except that all packs that meet the threshold are kept, not
-	just the base pack. Defaults to zero. Common unit suffixes of
-	'k', 'm', or 'g' are supported.
-+
-Note that if the number of kept packs is more than gc.autoPackLimit,
-this configuration variable is ignored, all packs except the base pack
-will be repacked. After this the number of packs should go below
-gc.autoPackLimit and gc.bigPackThreshold should be respected again.
-+
-If the amount of memory estimated for `git repack` to run smoothly is
-not available and `gc.bigPackThreshold` is not set, the largest pack
-will also be excluded (this is the equivalent of running `git gc` with
-`--keep-base-pack`).
-
-gc.writeCommitGraph::
-	If true, then gc will rewrite the commit-graph file when
-	linkgit:git-gc[1] is run. When using `git gc --auto`
-	the commit-graph will be updated if housekeeping is
-	required. Default is false. See linkgit:git-commit-graph[1]
-	for details.
-
-gc.logExpiry::
-	If the file gc.log exists, then `git gc --auto` will print
-	its content and exit with status zero instead of running
-	unless that file is more than 'gc.logExpiry' old.  Default is
-	"1.day".  See `gc.pruneExpire` for more ways to specify its
-	value.
-
-gc.packRefs::
-	Running `git pack-refs` in a repository renders it
-	unclonable by Git versions prior to 1.5.1.2 over dumb
-	transports such as HTTP.  This variable determines whether
-	'git gc' runs `git pack-refs`. This can be set to `notbare`
-	to enable it within all non-bare repos or it can be set to a
-	boolean value.  The default is `true`.
-
-gc.pruneExpire::
-	When 'git gc' is run, it will call 'prune --expire 2.weeks.ago'.
-	Override the grace period with this config variable.  The value
-	"now" may be used to disable this grace period and always prune
-	unreachable objects immediately, or "never" may be used to
-	suppress pruning.  This feature helps prevent corruption when
-	'git gc' runs concurrently with another process writing to the
-	repository; see the "NOTES" section of linkgit:git-gc[1].
-
-gc.worktreePruneExpire::
-	When 'git gc' is run, it calls
-	'git worktree prune --expire 3.months.ago'.
-	This config variable can be used to set a different grace
-	period. The value "now" may be used to disable the grace
-	period and prune `$GIT_DIR/worktrees` immediately, or "never"
-	may be used to suppress pruning.
-
-gc.reflogExpire::
-gc.<pattern>.reflogExpire::
-	'git reflog expire' removes reflog entries older than
-	this time; defaults to 90 days. The value "now" expires all
-	entries immediately, and "never" suppresses expiration
-	altogether. With "<pattern>" (e.g.
-	"refs/stash") in the middle the setting applies only to
-	the refs that match the <pattern>.
-
-gc.reflogExpireUnreachable::
-gc.<pattern>.reflogExpireUnreachable::
-	'git reflog expire' removes reflog entries older than
-	this time and are not reachable from the current tip;
-	defaults to 30 days. The value "now" expires all entries
-	immediately, and "never" suppresses expiration altogether.
-	With "<pattern>" (e.g. "refs/stash")
-	in the middle, the setting applies only to the refs that
-	match the <pattern>.
-+
-These types of entries are generally created as a result of using `git
-commit --amend` or `git rebase` and are the commits prior to the amend
-or rebase occurring.  Since these changes are not part of the current
-project most users will want to expire them sooner, which is why the
-default is more aggressive than `gc.reflogExpire`.
-
-gc.rerereResolved::
-	Records of conflicted merge you resolved earlier are
-	kept for this many days when 'git rerere gc' is run.
-	You can also use more human-readable "1.month.ago", etc.
-	The default is 60 days.  See linkgit:git-rerere[1].
-
-gc.rerereUnresolved::
-	Records of conflicted merge you have not resolved are
-	kept for this many days when 'git rerere gc' is run.
-	You can also use more human-readable "1.month.ago", etc.
-	The default is 15 days.  See linkgit:git-rerere[1].
