This also bumps the stable nixpkgs to 20.09 as of 2020-11-21, because there is some breakage in the git build related to the netrc credentials helper which someone has taken care of in nixpkgs. The stable channel is not used for anything other than git, so this should be fine. Change-Id: I3575a19dab09e1e9556cf8231d717de9890484fb

submodule.<name>.url::
|
|
The URL for a submodule. This variable is copied from the .gitmodules
|
|
file to the git config via 'git submodule init'. The user can change
|
|
the configured URL before obtaining the submodule via 'git submodule
|
|
update'. If neither submodule.<name>.active or submodule.active are
|
|
set, the presence of this variable is used as a fallback to indicate
|
|
whether the submodule is of interest to git commands.
|
|
See linkgit:git-submodule[1] and linkgit:gitmodules[5] for details.
|
|
|
|
submodule.<name>.update::
|
|
The method by which a submodule is updated by 'git submodule update',
|
|
which is the only affected command, others such as
|
|
'git checkout --recurse-submodules' are unaffected. It exists for
|
|
historical reasons, when 'git submodule' was the only command to
|
|
interact with submodules; settings like `submodule.active`
|
|
and `pull.rebase` are more specific. It is populated by
|
|
`git submodule init` from the linkgit:gitmodules[5] file.
|
|
See description of 'update' command in linkgit:git-submodule[1].
|
|
|
|
submodule.<name>.branch::
|
|
The remote branch name for a submodule, used by `git submodule
|
|
update --remote`. Set this option to override the value found in
|
|
the `.gitmodules` file. See linkgit:git-submodule[1] and
|
|
linkgit:gitmodules[5] for details.
|
|
|
|
submodule.<name>.fetchRecurseSubmodules::
|
|
This option can be used to control recursive fetching of this
|
|
submodule. It can be overridden by using the --[no-]recurse-submodules
|
|
command-line option to "git fetch" and "git pull".
|
|
This setting will override that from in the linkgit:gitmodules[5]
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
submodule.<name>.ignore::
|
|
Defines under what circumstances "git status" and the diff family show
|
|
a submodule as modified. When set to "all", it will never be considered
|
|
modified (but it will nonetheless show up in the output of status and
|
|
commit when it has been staged), "dirty" will ignore all changes
|
|
to the submodules work tree and
|
|
takes only differences between the HEAD of the submodule and the commit
|
|
recorded in the superproject into account. "untracked" will additionally
|
|
let submodules with modified tracked files in their work tree show up.
|
|
Using "none" (the default when this option is not set) also shows
|
|
submodules that have untracked files in their work tree as changed.
|
|
This setting overrides any setting made in .gitmodules for this submodule,
|
|
both settings can be overridden on the command line by using the
|
|
"--ignore-submodules" option. The 'git submodule' commands are not
|
|
affected by this setting.
|
|
|
|
submodule.<name>.active::
|
|
Boolean value indicating if the submodule is of interest to git
|
|
commands. This config option takes precedence over the
|
|
submodule.active config option. See linkgit:gitsubmodules[7] for
|
|
details.
|
|
|
|
submodule.active::
|
|
A repeated field which contains a pathspec used to match against a
|
|
submodule's path to determine if the submodule is of interest to git
|
|
commands. See linkgit:gitsubmodules[7] for details.
|
|
|
|
submodule.recurse::
|
|
Specifies if commands recurse into submodules by default. This
|
|
applies to all commands that have a `--recurse-submodules` option
|
|
(`checkout`, `fetch`, `grep`, `pull`, `push`, `read-tree`, `reset`,
|
|
`restore` and `switch`) except `clone` and `ls-files`.
|
|
Defaults to false.
|
|
When set to true, it can be deactivated via the
|
|
`--no-recurse-submodules` option. Note that some Git commands
|
|
lacking this option may call some of the above commands affected by
|
|
`submodule.recurse`; for instance `git remote update` will call
|
|
`git fetch` but does not have a `--no-recurse-submodules` option.
|
|
For these commands a workaround is to temporarily change the
|
|
configuration value by using `git -c submodule.recurse=0`.
|
|
|
|
submodule.fetchJobs::
|
|
Specifies how many submodules are fetched/cloned at the same time.
|
|
A positive integer allows up to that number of submodules fetched
|
|
in parallel. A value of 0 will give some reasonable default.
|
|
If unset, it defaults to 1.
|
|
|
|
submodule.alternateLocation::
|
|
Specifies how the submodules obtain alternates when submodules are
|
|
cloned. Possible values are `no`, `superproject`.
|
|
By default `no` is assumed, which doesn't add references. When the
|
|
value is set to `superproject` the submodule to be cloned computes
|
|
its alternates location relative to the superprojects alternate.
|
|
|
|
submodule.alternateErrorStrategy::
|
|
Specifies how to treat errors with the alternates for a submodule
|
|
as computed via `submodule.alternateLocation`. Possible values are
|
|
`ignore`, `info`, `die`. Default is `die`. Note that if set to `ignore`
|
|
or `info`, and if there is an error with the computed alternate, the
|
|
clone proceeds as if no alternate was specified.
