| status.relativePaths:: |
| By default, linkgit:git-status[1] shows paths relative to the |
| current directory. Setting this variable to `false` shows paths |
| relative to the repository root (this was the default for Git |
| prior to v1.5.4). |
| |
| status.short:: |
| Set to true to enable --short by default in linkgit:git-status[1]. |
| The option --no-short takes precedence over this variable. |
| |
| status.branch:: |
| Set to true to enable --branch by default in linkgit:git-status[1]. |
| The option --no-branch takes precedence over this variable. |
| |
| status.aheadBehind:: |
| Set to true to enable `--ahead-behind` and false to enable |
| `--no-ahead-behind` by default in linkgit:git-status[1] for |
| non-porcelain status formats. Defaults to true. |
| |
| status.displayCommentPrefix:: |
| If set to true, linkgit:git-status[1] will insert a comment |
| prefix before each output line (starting with |
| `core.commentChar`, i.e. `#` by default). This was the |
| behavior of linkgit:git-status[1] in Git 1.8.4 and previous. |
| Defaults to false. |
| |
| status.renameLimit:: |
| The number of files to consider when performing rename detection |
| in linkgit:git-status[1] and linkgit:git-commit[1]. Defaults to |
| the value of diff.renameLimit. |
| |
| status.renames:: |
| Whether and how Git detects renames in linkgit:git-status[1] and |
| linkgit:git-commit[1] . If set to "false", rename detection is |
| disabled. If set to "true", basic rename detection is enabled. |
| If set to "copies" or "copy", Git will detect copies, as well. |
| Defaults to the value of diff.renames. |
| |
| status.showStash:: |
| If set to true, linkgit:git-status[1] will display the number of |
| entries currently stashed away. |
| Defaults to false. |
| |
| status.showUntrackedFiles:: |
| By default, linkgit:git-status[1] and linkgit:git-commit[1] show |
| files which are not currently tracked by Git. Directories which |
| contain only untracked files, are shown with the directory name |
| only. Showing untracked files means that Git needs to lstat() all |
| the files in the whole repository, which might be slow on some |
| systems. So, this variable controls how the commands display |
| the untracked files. Possible values are: |
| + |
| -- |
| * `no` - Show no untracked files. |
| * `normal` - Show untracked files and directories. |
| * `all` - Show also individual files in untracked directories. |
| -- |
| + |
| If this variable is not specified, it defaults to 'normal'. |
| This variable can be overridden with the -u|--untracked-files option |
| of linkgit:git-status[1] and linkgit:git-commit[1]. |
| |
| status.submoduleSummary:: |
| Defaults to false. |
| If this is set to a non-zero number or true (identical to -1 or an |
| unlimited number), the submodule summary will be enabled and a |
| summary of commits for modified submodules will be shown (see |
| --summary-limit option of linkgit:git-submodule[1]). Please note |
| that the summary output command will be suppressed for all |
| submodules when `diff.ignoreSubmodules` is set to 'all' or only |
| for those submodules where `submodule.<name>.ignore=all`. The only |
| exception to that rule is that status and commit will show staged |
| submodule changes. To |
| also view the summary for ignored submodules you can either use |
| the --ignore-submodules=dirty command-line option or the 'git |
| submodule summary' command, which shows a similar output but does |
| not honor these settings. |
