When set to 'on-demand', fetch and + pull will only recurse into a populated submodule when its + superproject retrieves a commit that updates the submodule's + reference. + Defaults to 'on-demand', or to the value of 'submodule.recurse' if set. + +fetch.fsckObjects:: + If it is set to true, git-fetch-pack will check all fetched + objects. See `transfer.fsckObjects` for what's + checked. Defaults to false. If not set, the value of + `transfer.fsckObjects` is used instead. + +fetch.fsck.<msg-id>:: + Acts like `fsck.<msg-id>`, but is used by + linkgit:git-fetch-pack[1] instead of linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See + the `fsck.<msg-id>` documentation for details. + +fetch.fsck.skipList:: + Acts like `fsck.skipList`, but is used by + linkgit:git-fetch-pack[1] instead of linkgit:git-fsck[1]. See + the `fsck.skipList` documentation for details. + +fetch.unpackLimit:: + If the number of objects fetched over the Git native + transfer is below this + limit, then the objects will be unpacked into loose object + files. However if the number of received objects equals or + exceeds this limit then the received pack will be stored as + a pack, after adding any missing delta bases. Storing the + pack from a push can make the push operation complete faster, + especially on slow filesystems. If not set, the value of + `transfer.unpackLimit` is used instead. + +fetch.prune:: + If true, fetch will automatically behave as if the `--prune` + option was given on the command line. See also `remote.<name>.prune` + and the PRUNING section of linkgit:git-fetch[1]. + +fetch.pruneTags:: + If true, fetch will automatically behave as if the + `refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*` refspec was provided when pruning, + if not set already. This allows for setting both this option + and `fetch.prune` to maintain a 1=1 mapping to upstream + refs. See also `remote.<name>.pruneTags` and the PRUNING + section of linkgit:git-fetch[1]. + +fetch.output:: + Control how ref update status is printed. Valid values are + `full` and `compact`. Default value is `full`. See section + OUTPUT in linkgit:git-fetch[1] for detail. + +fetch.negotiationAlgorithm:: + Control how information about the commits in the local repository + is sent when negotiating the contents of the packfile to be sent by + the server. Set to "consecutive" to use an algorithm that walks + over consecutive commits checking each one. Set to "skipping" to + use an algorithm that skips commits in an effort to converge + faster, but may result in a larger-than-necessary packfile; or set + to "noop" to not send any information at all, which will almost + certainly result in a larger-than-necessary packfile, but will skip + the negotiation step. Set to "default" to override settings made + previously and use the default behaviour. The default is normally + "consecutive", but if `feature.experimental` is true, then the + default is "skipping". Unknown values will cause 'git fetch' to + error out. ++ +See also the `--negotiate-only` and `--negotiation-tip` options to +linkgit:git-fetch[1]. + +fetch.showForcedUpdates:: + Set to false to enable `--no-show-forced-updates` in + linkgit:git-fetch[1] and linkgit:git-pull[1] commands. + Defaults to true. + +fetch.parallel:: + Specifies the maximal number of fetch operations to be run in parallel + at a time (submodules, or remotes when the `--multiple` option of + linkgit:git-fetch[1] is in effect). ++ +A value of 0 will give some reasonable default. If unset, it defaults to 1. ++ +For submodules, this setting can be overridden using the `submodule.fetchJobs` +config setting. + +fetch.writeCommitGraph:: + Set to true to write a commit-graph after every `git fetch` command + that downloads a pack-file from a remote. Using the `--split` option, + most executions will create a very small commit-graph file on top of + the existing commit-graph file(s). Occasionally, these files will + merge and the write may take longer. Having an updated commit-graph + file helps performance of many Git commands, including `git merge-base`, + `git push -f`, and `git log --graph`. Defaults to false. |
