|
| 1 | +diff.autorefreshindex:: |
| 2 | + When using 'git diff' to compare with work tree |
| 3 | + files, do not consider stat-only change as changed. |
| 4 | + Instead, silently run `git update-index --refresh` to |
| 5 | + update the cached stat information for paths whose |
| 6 | + contents in the work tree match the contents in the |
| 7 | + index. This option defaults to true. Note that this |
| 8 | + affects only 'git diff' Porcelain, and not lower level |
| 9 | + 'diff' commands such as 'git diff-files'. |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +diff.external:: |
| 12 | + If this config variable is set, diff generation is not |
| 13 | + performed using the internal diff machinery, but using the |
| 14 | + given command. Can be overridden with the `GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF' |
| 15 | + environment variable. The command is called with parameters |
| 16 | + as described under "git Diffs" in linkgit:git[1]. Note: if |
| 17 | + you want to use an external diff program only on a subset of |
| 18 | + your files, you might want to use linkgit:gitattributes[5] instead. |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +diff.ignoreSubmodules:: |
| 21 | + Sets the default value of --ignore-submodules. Note that this |
| 22 | + affects only 'git diff' Porcelain, and not lower level 'diff' |
| 23 | + commands such as 'git diff-files'. 'git checkout' also honors |
| 24 | + this setting when reporting uncommitted changes. |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +diff.mnemonicprefix:: |
| 27 | + If set, 'git diff' uses a prefix pair that is different from the |
| 28 | + standard "a/" and "b/" depending on what is being compared. When |
| 29 | + this configuration is in effect, reverse diff output also swaps |
| 30 | + the order of the prefixes: |
| 31 | +`git diff`;; |
| 32 | + compares the (i)ndex and the (w)ork tree; |
| 33 | +`git diff HEAD`;; |
| 34 | + compares a (c)ommit and the (w)ork tree; |
| 35 | +`git diff --cached`;; |
| 36 | + compares a (c)ommit and the (i)ndex; |
| 37 | +`git diff HEAD:file1 file2`;; |
| 38 | + compares an (o)bject and a (w)ork tree entity; |
| 39 | +`git diff --no-index a b`;; |
| 40 | + compares two non-git things (1) and (2). |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +diff.noprefix:: |
| 43 | + If set, 'git diff' does not show any source or destination prefix. |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +diff.renameLimit:: |
| 46 | + The number of files to consider when performing the copy/rename |
| 47 | + detection; equivalent to the 'git diff' option '-l'. |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +diff.renames:: |
| 50 | + Tells git to detect renames. If set to any boolean value, it |
| 51 | + will enable basic rename detection. If set to "copies" or |
| 52 | + "copy", it will detect copies, as well. |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +diff.suppressBlankEmpty:: |
| 55 | + A boolean to inhibit the standard behavior of printing a space |
| 56 | + before each empty output line. Defaults to false. |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +diff.<driver>.command:: |
| 59 | + The custom diff driver command. See linkgit:gitattributes[5] |
| 60 | + for details. |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +diff.<driver>.xfuncname:: |
| 63 | + The regular expression that the diff driver should use to |
| 64 | + recognize the hunk header. A built-in pattern may also be used. |
| 65 | + See linkgit:gitattributes[5] for details. |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +diff.<driver>.binary:: |
| 68 | + Set this option to true to make the diff driver treat files as |
| 69 | + binary. See linkgit:gitattributes[5] for details. |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +diff.<driver>.textconv:: |
| 72 | + The command that the diff driver should call to generate the |
| 73 | + text-converted version of a file. The result of the |
| 74 | + conversion is used to generate a human-readable diff. See |
| 75 | + linkgit:gitattributes[5] for details. |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +diff.<driver>.wordregex:: |
| 78 | + The regular expression that the diff driver should use to |
| 79 | + split words in a line. See linkgit:gitattributes[5] for |
| 80 | + details. |
| 81 | + |
| 82 | +diff.<driver>.cachetextconv:: |
| 83 | + Set this option to true to make the diff driver cache the text |
| 84 | + conversion outputs. See linkgit:gitattributes[5] for details. |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +diff.tool:: |
| 87 | + The diff tool to be used by linkgit:git-difftool[1]. This |
| 88 | + option overrides `merge.tool`, and has the same valid built-in |
| 89 | + values as `merge.tool` minus "tortoisemerge" and plus |
| 90 | + "kompare". Any other value is treated as a custom diff tool, |
| 91 | + and there must be a corresponding `difftool.<tool>.cmd` |
| 92 | + option. |
