config: respect `pager.config` in list/get-mode only Similar to de121ffe5 (tag: respect `pager.tag` in list-mode only, 2017-08-02), use the DELAY_PAGER_CONFIG-mechanism to only respect `pager.config` when we are listing or "get"ing config. We have several getters and some are guaranteed to give at most one line of output. Paging all getters including those could be convenient from a documentation point-of-view. The downside would be that a misconfigured or not so modern pager might wait for user interaction before terminating. Let's instead respect the config for precisely those getters which may produce more than one line of output. `--get-urlmatch` may or may not produce multiple lines of output, depending on the exact usage. Let's not try to recognize the two modes, but instead make `--get-urlmatch` always respect the config. Analyzing the detailed usage might be trivial enough here, but could establish a precedent that we will never be able to enforce throughout the codebase and that will just open a can of worms. This fixes the failing test added in the previous commit. Also adapt the test for whether `git config foo.bar bar` and `git config --get foo.bar` respects `pager.config`.

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial
or git help tutorial
, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname>
or git help <commandname>
.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration
or git help cvs-migration
if git is installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just “subscribe git” in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://public-inbox.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
The maintainer frequently sends the “What's cooking” reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name “git” was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as “the stupid content tracker” and the name as (depending on your mood):
