+ Specifies how many context lines should be used in calls to diff
+ made by the linkgit:git-gui[1]. The default is "5".
+

+ Determines if linkgit:git-gui[1] shows untracked files
+ in the file list. The default is "true".

+ Specifies the default encoding to use for displaying of
+ file contents in linkgit:git-gui[1] and linkgit:gitk[1].

+ for relevant files (see linkgit:gitattributes[5]).
+ If this option is not set, the tools default to the
+ locale encoding.

+ Determines if new branches created with linkgit:git-gui[1] should
+ default to tracking remote branches with matching names or
+ not. Default: "false".

+ linkgit:git-gui[1].

+ detection, measured in alphanumeric characters. See the
+ linkgit:git-blame[1] manual for more information on copy detection.
