+index.recordEndOfIndexEntries::
+	Specifies whether the index file should include an "End Of Index
+	Entry" section. This reduces index load time on multiprocessor
+	machines but produces a message "ignoring EOIE extension" when
+	reading the index using Git versions before 2.20. Defaults to
+	'true' if index.threads has been explicitly enabled, 'false'
+	otherwise.
+
+index.recordOffsetTable::
+	Specifies whether the index file should include an "Index Entry
+	Offset Table" section. This reduces index load time on
+	multiprocessor machines but produces a message "ignoring IEOT
+	extension" when reading the index using Git versions before 2.20.
+	Defaults to 'true' if index.threads has been explicitly enabled,
+	'false' otherwise.
+
+index.sparse::
+	When enabled, write the index using sparse-directory entries. This
+	has no effect unless `core.sparseCheckout` and
+	`core.sparseCheckoutCone` are both enabled. Defaults to 'false'.
+
+index.threads::
+	Specifies the number of threads to spawn when loading the index.
+	This is meant to reduce index load time on multiprocessor machines.
+	Specifying 0 or 'true' will cause Git to auto-detect the number of
+	CPUs and set the number of threads accordingly. Specifying 1 or
+	'false' will disable multithreading. Defaults to 'true'.
+
+index.version::
+	Specify the version with which new index files should be
+	initialized.  This does not affect existing repositories.
+	If `feature.manyFiles` is enabled, then the default is 4.
+
+index.skipHash::
+	When enabled, do not compute the trailing hash for the index file.
+	This accelerates Git commands that manipulate the index, such as
+	`git add`, `git commit`, or `git status`. Instead of storing the
+	checksum, write a trailing set of bytes with value zero, indicating
+	that the computation was skipped.
++
+If you enable `index.skipHash`, then Git clients older than 2.13.0 will
+refuse to parse the index and Git clients older than 2.40.0 will report an
+error during `git fsck`.
