-	If this config variable is set, diff generation is not

-diff.renameLimit::
-	The number of files to consider when performing the copy/rename

-
-diff.renames::
-	Tells git to detect renames.  If set to any boolean value, it
-	will enable basic rename detection.  If set to "copies" or
-	"copy", it will detect copies, as well.
-
-diff.ignoreSubmodules::
-	Sets the default value of --ignore-submodules. Note that this

-	commands such as 'git diff-files'. 'git checkout' also honors
-	this setting when reporting uncommitted changes.

-diff.suppressBlankEmpty::
-	A boolean to inhibit the standard behavior of printing a space

-diff.tool::
-	Controls which diff tool is used.  `diff.tool` overrides
