<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>\r
<div class="sectionbody">\r
<p>You can query/set/replace/unset options with this command. The name is\r
actually the section and the key separated by a dot, and the value will be\r
escaped.</p>\r
-<p>If you want to set/unset an option which can occur on multiple lines, you\r
-should provide a POSIX regex for the value. If you want to handle the lines\r
-<strong>not</strong> matching the regex, just prepend a single exclamation mark in front\r
-(see EXAMPLES).</p>\r
+<p>If you want to set/unset an option which can occur on multiple\r
+lines, a POSIX regexp <tt>value_regex</tt> needs to be given. Only the\r
+existing values that match the regexp are updated or unset. If\r
+you want to handle the lines that do <strong>not</strong> match the regex, just\r
+prepend a single exclamation mark in front (see EXAMPLES).</p>\r
<p>The type specifier can be either <em>--int</em> or <em>--bool</em>, which will make\r
<em>git-repo-config</em> ensure that the variable(s) are of the given type and\r
convert the value to the canonical form (simple decimal number for int,\r
a "true" or "false" string for bool). If no type specifier is passed,\r
no checks or transformations are performed on the value.</p>\r

</div></div>\r
<p>you can set the filemode to true with</p>\r

</div></div>\r
</div>\r
+<h2>CONFIGURATION FILE</h2>\r
+<div class="sectionbody">\r
+<p>The git configuration file contains a number of variables that affect\r
+the git command's behavior. They can be used by both the git plumbing\r
+and the porcelains. The variables are divided into sections, where\r
+in the fully qualified variable name the variable itself is the last\r
+dot-separated segment and the section name is everything before the last\r
+dot. The variable names are case-insensitive and only alphanumeric\r
+characters are allowed. Some variables may appear multiple times.</p>\r
+<p>The syntax is fairly flexible and permissive; whitespaces are mostly\r
+ignored. The <em>#</em> and <em>;</em> characters begin comments to the end of line,\r
+blank lines are ignored, lines containing strings enclosed in square\r
+brackets start sections and all the other lines are recognized\r
+as setting variables, in the form <em>name = value</em>. If there is no equal\r
+sign on the line, the entire line is taken as <em>name</em> and the variable\r
+is recognized as boolean "true". String values may be entirely or partially\r
+enclosed in double quotes; some variables may require special value format.</p>\r
+<h3>Example</h3>\r
+<div class="literalblock">\r
+<div class="content">\r
+<pre><tt># Core variables\r
+[core]\r
+ ; Don't trust file modes\r
+ filemode = false</tt></pre>\r
+</div></div>\r
+<div class="literalblock">\r
+<div class="content">\r
+<pre><tt># Our diff algorithm\r
+[diff]\r
+ external = "/usr/local/bin/gnu-diff -u"\r
+ renames = true</tt></pre>\r
+</div></div>\r
+<h3>Variables</h3>\r
+<p>Note that this list is non-comprehensive and not necessarily complete.\r
+For command-specific variables, you will find a more detailed description\r
+in the appropriate manual page. You will find a description of non-core\r
+porcelain configuration variables in the respective porcelain documentation.</p>\r
+<dl>\r
+<dt>\r
+core.fileMode\r
+</dt>\r
+<dd>\r
+<p>\r
+ If false, the executable bit differences between the index and\r
+ the working copy are ignored; useful on broken filesystems like FAT.\r
+ See <a href="git-update-index.html">git-update-index(1)</a>. True by default.\r
+</p>\r
+</dd>\r
+<dt>\r
+core.gitProxy\r

+<dd>\r
+<p>\r
+ A "proxy command" to execute (as <em>command host port</em>) instead\r
+ of establishing direct connection to the remote server when\r
+ using the git protocol for fetching. If the variable value is\r
+ in the "COMMAND for DOMAIN" format, the command is applied only\r
+ on hostnames ending with the specified domain string. This variable\r
+ may be set multiple times and is matched in the given order;\r
+ the first match wins.\r
+</p>\r

+handling).</p>\r

+<dt>\r
+core.ignoreStat\r
+</dt>\r
+<dd>\r
+<p>\r
+ The working copy files are assumed to stay unchanged until you\r
+ mark them otherwise manually - Git will not detect the file changes\r
+ by lstat() calls. This is useful on systems where those are very\r
+ slow, such as Microsoft Windows. See <a href="git-update-index.html">git-update-index(1)</a>.\r
+ False by default.\r

+core.preferSymlinkRefs\r
+</dt>\r
+<dd>\r
+<p>\r
+ Instead of the default "symref" format for HEAD\r

+ expect HEAD to be a symbolic link.\r
+</p>\r
+</dd>\r
+<dt>\r
+core.logAllRefUpdates\r
+</dt>\r
+<dd>\r
+<p>\r
+ If true, <tt>git-update-ref</tt> will append a line to\r
+ "$GIT_DIR/logs/<ref>" listing the new SHA1 and the date/time\r
+ of the update. If the file does not exist it will be\r
+ created automatically. This information can be used to\r
+ determine what commit was the tip of a branch "2 days ago".\r
+ This value is false by default (no logging).\r

+<p>\r
+ Command aliases for the <a href="git.html">git(1)</a> command wrapper - e.g.\r
+ after defining "alias.last = cat-file commit HEAD", the invocation\r
+ "git last" is equivalent to "git cat-file commit HEAD". To avoid\r
+ confusion and troubles with script usage, aliases that\r
+ hide existing git commands are ignored. Arguments are split by\r
+ spaces, the usual shell quoting and escaping is supported.\r
+ quote pair and a backslash can be used to quote them.\r
