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

|
|
can tell Git that you do not need help by setting these to 'false':

|
|
fetchShowForcedUpdates::
|
|
Advice 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.
|
|
pushUpdateRejected::
|
|
Set this variable to 'false' if you want to disable
|
|
'pushNonFFCurrent',
|
|
'pushNonFFMatching', 'pushAlreadyExists',
|
|
'pushFetchFirst', and 'pushNeedsForce'
|
|
simultaneously.
|
|
pushNonFFCurrent::
|
|
Advice shown when linkgit:git-push[1] fails due to a
|
|
non-fast-forward update to the current branch.
|
|
pushNonFFMatching::
|
|
Advice shown when you ran linkgit:git-push[1] and pushed
|
|
'matching refs' explicitly (i.e. you used ':', or
|
|
specified a refspec that isn't your current branch) and
|
|
it resulted in a non-fast-forward error.
|
|
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.
|
|
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.
|
|
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 branch.
|
|
statusUoption::
|

Advise to consider using the `-u` option to linkgit:git-status[1]
|
|
when the command takes more than 2 seconds to enumerate untracked
|
|
files.
|
|
commitBeforeMerge::
|
|
Advice shown when linkgit:git-merge[1] refuses to
|
|
merge to avoid overwriting local changes.
|
|
resetQuiet::
|
|
Advice to consider using the `--quiet` option to linkgit:git-reset[1]
|
|
when the command takes more than 2 seconds to enumerate unstaged
|
|
changes after reset.
|
|
resolveConflict::
|
|
Advice shown by various commands when conflicts
|
|
prevent the operation from being performed.
|
|
sequencerInUse::
|
|
Advice shown when a sequencer command is already in progress.

|
|
Advice on how to set your identity configuration when
|
|
your information is guessed from the system username and
|
|
domain name.
|
|
detachedHead::
|
|
Advice shown when you used
|
|
linkgit:git-switch[1] or linkgit:git-checkout[1]
|
|
to move to the detach HEAD state, to instruct how to
|
|
create a local branch after the fact.
|
|
checkoutAmbiguousRemoteBranchName::
|
|
Advice 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 used by default in some situations where this
|
|
advice would be printed.

|
amWorkDir::
|

|
linkgit:git-am[1] fails to apply it.

In case of failure in the output of linkgit:git-rm[1],
|
|
show directions on how to proceed from the current state.

Advice on what to do when you've accidentally added one
|
|
git repo inside of another.
