2 This variable is the same as `transfer.hideRefs`, but applies
3 only to `upload-pack` (and so affects only fetches, not pushes).
4 An attempt to fetch a hidden ref by `git fetch` will fail. See
5 also `uploadpack.allowTipSHA1InWant`.
7 uploadpack.allowTipSHA1InWant::
8 When `uploadpack.hideRefs` is in effect, allow `upload-pack`
9 to accept a fetch request that asks for an object at the tip
10 of a hidden ref (by default, such a request is rejected).
11 See also `uploadpack.hideRefs`. Even if this is false, a client
12 may be able to steal objects via the techniques described in the
13 "SECURITY" section of the linkgit:gitnamespaces[7] man page; it's
14 best to keep private data in a separate repository.
16 uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant::
17 Allow `upload-pack` to accept a fetch request that asks for an
18 object that is reachable from any ref tip. However, note that
19 calculating object reachability is computationally expensive.
20 Defaults to `false`. Even if this is false, a client may be able
21 to steal objects via the techniques described in the "SECURITY"
22 section of the linkgit:gitnamespaces[7] man page; it's best to
23 keep private data in a separate repository.
25 uploadpack.allowAnySHA1InWant::
26 Allow `upload-pack` to accept a fetch request that asks for any
28 It implies `uploadpack.allowTipSHA1InWant` and
29 `uploadpack.allowReachableSHA1InWant`. If set to `true` it will
30 enable both of them, it set to `false` it will disable both of
34 uploadpack.keepAlive::
35 When `upload-pack` has started `pack-objects`, there may be a
36 quiet period while `pack-objects` prepares the pack. Normally
37 it would output progress information, but if `--quiet` was used
38 for the fetch, `pack-objects` will output nothing at all until
39 the pack data begins. Some clients and networks may consider
40 the server to be hung and give up. Setting this option instructs
41 `upload-pack` to send an empty keepalive packet every
42 `uploadpack.keepAlive` seconds. Setting this option to 0
43 disables keepalive packets entirely. The default is 5 seconds.
45 uploadpack.packObjectsHook::
46 If this option is set, when `upload-pack` would run
47 `git pack-objects` to create a packfile for a client, it will
48 run this shell command instead. The `pack-objects` command and
49 arguments it _would_ have run (including the `git pack-objects`
50 at the beginning) are appended to the shell command. The stdin
51 and stdout of the hook are treated as if `pack-objects` itself
52 was run. I.e., `upload-pack` will feed input intended for
53 `pack-objects` to the hook, and expects a completed packfile on
56 Note that this configuration variable is only respected when it is specified
57 in protected configuration (see <<SCOPES>>). This is a safety measure
58 against fetching from untrusted repositories.
60 uploadpack.allowFilter::
61 If this option is set, `upload-pack` will support partial
62 clone and partial fetch object filtering.
64 uploadpackfilter.allow::
65 Provides a default value for unspecified object filters (see: the
66 below configuration variable). If set to `true`, this will also
67 enable all filters which get added in the future.
70 uploadpackfilter.<filter>.allow::
71 Explicitly allow or ban the object filter corresponding to
72 `<filter>`, where `<filter>` may be one of: `blob:none`,
73 `blob:limit`, `object:type`, `tree`, `sparse:oid`, or `combine`.
74 If using combined filters, both `combine` and all of the nested
75 filter kinds must be allowed. Defaults to `uploadpackfilter.allow`.
77 uploadpackfilter.tree.maxDepth::
78 Only allow `--filter=tree:<n>` when `<n>` is no more than the value of
79 `uploadpackfilter.tree.maxDepth`. If set, this also implies
80 `uploadpackfilter.tree.allow=true`, unless this configuration
81 variable had already been set. Has no effect if unset.
83 uploadpack.allowRefInWant::
84 If this option is set, `upload-pack` will support the `ref-in-want`
85 feature of the protocol version 2 `fetch` command. This feature
86 is intended for the benefit of load-balanced servers which may
87 not have the same view of what OIDs their refs point to due to
