advice.*::
These variables control various optional help messages designed to
aid new users. When left unconfigured, Git will give the message
alongside instructions on how to squelch it. You can tell Git
that you do not need the help message by setting these to `false`:
+
--
addEmbeddedRepo::
Shown when the user accidentally adds one
git repo inside of another.
addEmptyPathspec::
Shown when the user runs `git add` without providing
the pathspec parameter.
addIgnoredFile::
Shown when the user attempts to add an ignored file to
the index.
amWorkDir::
Shown when linkgit:git-am[1] fails to apply a patch
file, to tell the user the location of the file.
ambiguousFetchRefspec::
Shown when a fetch refspec for multiple remotes maps to
the same remote-tracking branch namespace and causes branch
tracking set-up to fail.
checkoutAmbiguousRemoteBranchName::
Shown when the argument to
linkgit:git-checkout[1] and linkgit:git-switch[1]
ambiguously resolves to a
remote tracking branch on more than one remote in
situations where an unambiguous argument would have
otherwise caused a remote-tracking branch to be
checked out. See the `checkout.defaultRemote`
configuration variable for how to set a given remote
to be used by default in some situations where this
advice would be printed.
commitBeforeMerge::
Shown when linkgit:git-merge[1] refuses to
merge to avoid overwriting local changes.
detachedHead::
Shown when the user uses
linkgit:git-switch[1] or linkgit:git-checkout[1]
to move to the detached HEAD state, to tell the user how
to create a local branch after the fact.
diverging::
Shown when a fast-forward is not possible.
fetchShowForcedUpdates::
Shown when linkgit:git-fetch[1] takes a long time
to calculate forced updates after ref updates, or to warn
that the check is disabled.
forceDeleteBranch::
Shown when the user tries to delete a not fully merged
branch without the force option set.
ignoredHook::
Shown when a hook is ignored because the hook is not
set as executable.
implicitIdentity::
Shown when the user's information is guessed from the
system username and domain name, to tell the user how to
set their identity configuration.
mergeConflict::
Shown when various commands stop because of conflicts.
nestedTag::
Shown when a user attempts to recursively tag a tag object.
pushAlreadyExists::
Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects an update that
does not qualify for fast-forwarding (e.g., a tag.)
pushFetchFirst::
Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects an update that
tries to overwrite a remote ref that points at an
object we do not have.
pushNeedsForce::
Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects an update that
tries to overwrite a remote ref that points at an
object that is not a commit-ish, or make the remote
ref point at an object that is not a commit-ish.
pushNonFFCurrent::
Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] fails due to a
non-fast-forward update to the current branch.
pushNonFFMatching::
Shown when the user ran linkgit:git-push[1] and pushed
"matching refs" explicitly (i.e. used `:`, or
specified a refspec that isn't the current branch) and
it resulted in a non-fast-forward error.
pushRefNeedsUpdate::
Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] rejects a forced update of
a branch when its remote-tracking ref has updates that we
do not have locally.
pushUnqualifiedRefname::
Shown when linkgit:git-push[1] gives up trying to
guess based on the source and destination refs what
remote ref namespace the source belongs in, but where
we can still suggest that the user push to either
`refs/heads/*` or `refs/tags/*` based on the type of the
source object.
pushUpdateRejected::
Set this variable to `false` if you want to disable
`pushNonFFCurrent`, `pushNonFFMatching`, `pushAlreadyExists`,
`pushFetchFirst`, `pushNeedsForce`, and `pushRefNeedsUpdate`
simultaneously.
refSyntax::
Shown when the user provides an illegal ref name, to
tell the user about the ref syntax documentation.
resetNoRefresh::
Shown when linkgit:git-reset[1] takes more than 2
seconds to refresh the index after reset, to tell the user
that they can use the `--no-refresh` option.
resolveConflict::
Shown by various commands when conflicts
prevent the operation from being performed.
rmHints::
Shown on failure in the output of linkgit:git-rm[1], to
give directions on how to proceed from the current state.
sequencerInUse::
Shown when a sequencer command is already in progress.
skippedCherryPicks::
Shown when linkgit:git-rebase[1] skips a commit that has already
been cherry-picked onto the upstream branch.
statusAheadBehind::
Shown when linkgit:git-status[1] computes the ahead/behind
counts for a local ref compared to its remote tracking ref,
and that calculation takes longer than expected. Will not
appear if `status.aheadBehind` is false or the option
`--no-ahead-behind` is given.
statusHints::
Show directions on how to proceed from the current
state in the output of linkgit:git-status[1], in
the template shown when writing commit messages in
linkgit:git-commit[1], and in the help message shown
by linkgit:git-switch[1] or
linkgit:git-checkout[1] when switching branches.
statusUoption::
Shown when linkgit:git-status[1] takes more than 2
seconds to enumerate untracked files, to tell the user that
they can use the `-u` option.
submoduleAlternateErrorStrategyDie::
Shown when a submodule.alternateErrorStrategy option
configured to "die" causes a fatal error.
submoduleMergeConflict::
Advice shown when a non-trivial submodule merge conflict is
encountered.
submodulesNotUpdated::
Shown when a user runs a submodule command that fails
because `git submodule update --init` was not run.
suggestDetachingHead::
Shown when linkgit:git-switch[1] refuses to detach HEAD
without the explicit `--detach` option.
updateSparsePath::
Shown when either linkgit:git-add[1] or linkgit:git-rm[1]
is asked to update index entries outside the current sparse
checkout.
waitingForEditor::
Shown when Git is waiting for editor input. Relevant
when e.g. the editor is not launched inside the terminal.
worktreeAddOrphan::
Shown when the user tries to create a worktree from an
invalid reference, to tell the user how to create a new unborn
branch instead.
